Functional and genetic survey of all known single-nucleotide polymorphisms within the human deoxyribonuclease I gene in wide-ranging ethnic groups.
DNA and Cell Biology 2011 April
The single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human DNase I gene (DNASE1) might be involved in susceptibility to some common diseases; however, only limited population data are available. Further, the effects of these SNPs on in vivo DNase I activity remain unknown. The genotype and haplotype of all the SNPs in DNASE1 were determined in 3 ethnic groups including 14 populations using newly developed methods. Together with our previous data on the nonsynonymous SNPs, two major haplotypes based on the five exonic SNPs were identified; genetic diversity in the Asian population was low. Among 10 SNPs, other than exonic SNPs in the gene, only 3 were polymorphic among all the populations. Haplotype distribution, based on all the polymorphic SNPs, was clarified to be generally varied in an ethnic-dependent manner. Thus, the genetic aspects of DNASE1 with regard to all the SNPs in wide-ranging ethnic groups could be first demonstrated. Further, there was no correlation of all the polymorphic SNPs other than nonsynonymous ones with serum DNase I activity levels. Polymorphic SNPs other than the exonic SNPs might not be directly related to common diseases through alterations in in vivo levels of the activity.
