Details of the investigated genomic region ( – bp; NCBI reference sequence build 36) on chromosome 2. (a) Transcript information for the investigated cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA4) locus (UCSC Genome Browser, build 36), with arrows indicating the direction of transcription. (b) Negative log10 association P-values of markers analyzed in the case–control study. (c) Linkage disequilibrium (LD) at the CTLA4 locus is displayed by r2. LD and haplotype blocks were analyzed using Haploview software (version 4.1).
