Genetic diversity and prevalence of CCR2-CCR5 gene polymorphisms in the Omani population
Polymorphisms in the regulatory region of the CCR5 gene affect protein expression and modulate the progress of HIV-1 disease. Because of this prominent role, variations in this gene have been under differential pressure and their frequencies vary among human populations. The CCR2V64I mutation is tig...
