The heavy chain of platelet glycoprotein Ib (GPIb) contains two prevalent sequence polymorphisms. The first, Thr/Met 145 is responsible for the human platelet alloantigen system, human platelet antigen (HPA)-2. The second is a tandem repeat polymorphism that consists of four variants, A, B, C, and D

Multiple variants of the vascular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM1) promoter show increased nucleotide heterozygosity in the African American population. Using a novel transfection-based transcriptional pathway profiling method, we show that select uncommon variants are functionally hyperactive. Eight can
