Genetic analyses of interferon pathway-related genes reveal multiple new loci associated with systemic lupus erythematosus
AssociationN=10,543Paula S. Ramos et al.(2011)· Arthritis &amp; Rheumatism

A three-stage genetic association study of interferon pathway-related genes identifies multiple novel loci associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The study evaluated 1,754 genes in two discovery/replication cohorts (939 SLE cases, 3,398 controls) with confirmation in an independent cohort. Novel confirmed associations include CD44 (rs507230, P = 3.98×10⁻¹², OR = 0.71), pleiotrophin/PTN (rs919581, P = 5.38×10⁻⁴), DNAJA1 (rs10971259, P = 6.31×10⁻³), and KPNA1 (rs6810306, P = 4.91×10⁻²).

Association of a functional polymorphism of PTPN22 encoding a lymphoid protein phosphatase in bilateral Meniere's disease
AssociationN=2,344Jose A. Lopez‐Escamez et al.(2010)· The Laryngoscope

Case-control study of 716 Meniere's disease patients and 1,628 controls using ImmunoChip genotyping identified intronic variants rs3774937 (C allele) and rs4648011 (G allele) in the NFKB1 gene associated with faster hearing loss progression in patients with unilateral sensorineural hearing loss (corrected p=0.009 and p=0.003, respectively). These variants reduced median time to reach hearing stage 3 (≥40 dB) by approximately 2 years. No single variants reached genome-wide significance for MD susceptibility, and these NFKB1 variants did not influence hearing in bilateral MD.

About UBE2L3

The modification of proteins with ubiquitin is an important cellular mechanism for targeting abnormal or short-lived proteins for degradation. Ubiquitination involves at least three classes of enzymes: ubiquitin-activating enzymes (E1s), ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2s) and ubiquitin-protein ligases (E3s). This gene encodes a member of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. This enzyme is demonstrated to participate in the ubiquitination of p53, c-Fos, and the NF-kB precursor p105 in vitro. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
