The DNA sequence of the gene, however, revealed a pentanucleotide deletion within the 5' splice junction of the first intervening sequence. Following the G of the invariant G-T dinucleotide...

With the recognition that most of the human genetic variation contributing to common disease risk lies outside of genes and probably in enhancers, unraveling...
