Abstract:
Muscarinic M2 and M3 receptors are important for the development of airway hyperresponsiveness in asthma. While there is currently no evidence to suggest altered function of M3 receptors in airway disease, a dysfunctionality of M2 receptors has been reported to occur in asthmatic patients. Current studies suggest that this dysfunctionality may be caused by allosteric modulation induced by endogenous mediators released by pro-inflammatory cells in inflamed airways. However, it is not known whether genetic variation in the coding or transcriptional regulatory regions of the gene contributes to t

The polymorphism being analyzed is a K232A substitution (lysine to alanine amino acid change) in exon VII of the diacylglycerol acyl transferase 1 (DGAT1) gene.

The study of natural variation is a principle component of biology. One process that affects levels of natural variation is meiotic recombination—the process by which homologous chromosomes break and interchange genetic information with one another during the formation of gametes. Surprisingly, this factor that shapes levels of natural variation across the genome itself presents with a great deal of variation. That variation manifests itself at many levels: within genomes, between individual organisms, across populations, and among species. The factors and mechanisms responsible for the non-ra
