Fine mapping of the IBD1 locus did not identify Crohn disease-associated NOD2 variants: implications for complex disease genetics.
Crohn disease (CD) is a chronic relapsing inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract. Recently, polymorphisms in NOD2 (CARD15), a gene mapping to the chromosome 16 IBD1 susceptibility locus, have been associated with susceptibility to CD. One group identified the gene by using classic posi...
