Simultaneous identification of <it>GSTP1</it> Ile105→Val105 and Ala114→Val114 substitutions using an amplification refractory mutation systempolymerase chain reactionassay: studies in patients with asthma

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzyme GSTP1 utilizes byproducts of oxidative stress. We previously showed that alleles of <it>GSTP1</it> that encode the Ile105→Val105 substitution are associated with the asthma pheno...
