Polymorphism in the TRP8 gene in Kyrgyz population: putative association with highland adaptation

The human TRPM8 gene encodes a receptor mediating cold sensitivity, and this fact points to its putative role in cold adaptation. The structural variability of the TRPM8 gene for five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has been studied in Kyrgyz population. The SNPs are located in coding regions...
