Variations in the NRAMP1 gene and susceptibility to tuberculosis in West Africans.

Variations in the NRAMP1 gene and susceptibility to tuberculosis in West Africans.

BACKGROUND: Genetic factors may affect the susceptibility to tuberculosis, but no specific genes governing susceptibility have been identified. In mice, natural resistance to infection with some mycobacteria is influenced by the gene for natural-resistance-associated macrophage protein 1 (Nramp1),...
