The functional variant rs1048990 in PSMA6 is associated with susceptibility to myocardial infarction in a Chinese population
Abstract
A recent case-control study reported that a functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the proteasome subunit alpha type 6 gene (PSMA6) (rs1048990, C/G) was associated with susceptibility to myocardial infarction (MI) in the Japanese population.
