Fine mapping of a putative tuberculosis-susceptibility locus on chromosome 15q11-13 in African families.
Host genetics plays an important role in individual susceptibility and resistance to infectious diseases, but no genes have yet been identified using genome-wide screens. Twin studies have indicated that tuberculosis susceptibility has a significant host genetic component, and several genes appear t...
