## Objective: In the era of postgenomic research, linkage- and association-based strategies are beginning to reveal novel complex disease genes. using such an approach, a functional haplotype of the peptidylarginine deiminase 4 gene (padi4) has recently been identified as a gene conferring suscepti

## Abstract ## Objective Antiโcyclic citrullinated peptide (antiโCCP) antibodies are rheumatoid arthritis (RA)โspecific serologic markers. RA susceptibility has been associated with HLAโDRB1 shared epitope (SE) alleles and singleโnucleotide polymorphism (SNP) haplotypes in the peptidyl arginine de
## Abstract ## Objective A recent study of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) showed an association with a functional singleโnucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mapping to the promoter region of the __MHC2TA__ gene on chromosome 16p13 in a Swedish population. Interestingly, evidence for linkage to this region ha
## Abstract ## Objective Recent studies of 2 complex diseases, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and Crohn's disease (CD), showed associations with genes mapping to the cytokine gene cluster on 5q31. In particular, a functional singleโnucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mapping to intron 1 of the organic cation
