Structural variation of the malaria-associated human glycophorin A-B-E region

Abstract Background Approximately 5% of the human genome shows common structural variation, which is enriched for genes involved in the immune response and cell-cell interactions. A well-established region of extensive structural variation is the glycophorin gene cluster, comprising three tandemly-r...
