▶Structural insertion/deletion variation in IRF5 is associated with a risk haplotype and defines the precise IRF5 isoforms expressed in systemic lupus erythematosusAssociationN=373Sergey V. Kozyrev et al.(2007)· Arthritis & Rheumatism
This study identified 2,530 genes with alternative polyadenylation quantitative trait loci (apaQTL) in 373 European individuals from the GEUVADIS dataset, discovering ~160,000 genetic variants affecting 3' UTR isoform expression. Notably, rs10954213 in IRF5 was confirmed to affect APA regulation in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. apaQTLs showed significant enrichment in GWAS hits, particularly for immune disorders (OR=5.41) and neurological disorders (OR=4.32), suggesting that alternative polyadenylation is an important intermediate molecular phenotype linking genetic variation to complex disease susceptibility.
About TNFSF13B
The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) ligand family. This cytokine is a ligand for receptors TNFRSF13B/TACI, TNFRSF17/BCMA, and TNFRSF13C/BAFFR. This cytokine is expressed in B cell lineage cells, and acts as a potent B cell activator. It has been also shown to play an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of B cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified.
