  • Title: A highly polymorphic CA repeat marker at the human interleukin 6 receptor (IL6R) locus.
    Author: Tsukamoto K, Ohta N, Shirai Y, Emi M.
    Journal: J Hum Genet; 1998; 43(4):289-90. PubMed ID: 9852689.
    Abstract:
    A polymorphic dinucleotide (CA) sequence was isolated from a genomic clone containing the human interleukin 6 receptor (IL6R) gene. High heterozygosity (0.81) makes this polymorphism a useful marker in the genetic study of disorders affecting the inflammation process and bone resorption.
