Genome wide association analysis of a founder population identified TAF3 as a gene for MCHC in humans.

Genome wide association analysis of a founder population identified TAF3 as a gene for MCHC in humans.

The red blood cell related traits are highly heritable but their genetics are poorly defined. Only 5-10% of the total observed variance is explained by the genetic loci found to date, suggesting that additional loci should be searched using approaches alternative to large meta analysis. GWAS (Genome...
