Nucleotide diversity and population differentiation of the Melanocortin 1 Receptor gene, MC1R

BACKGROUND: The melanocortin 1 receptor gene (MC1R) is responsible for normal pigment variation in humans and is highly polymorphic with numerous population-specific alleles. Some MC1R variants have been associated with skin cancer risk. RESULTS: Allele frequency data were compiled on 55 single nucl...
