Characterising amylase gene CNVs and application to association studies
The human amylase gene family on chromosome 1p21.1 is highly copy number variable. The salivary (AMY1) and pancreatic (AMY2A and AMY2B) amylase genes encode the starch-digesting enzymes expressed in the salivary gland and pancreas, respectively. Different molecular approaches have been used to inves...
