Screening of variants for lactase persistence/non-persistence in populations from South Africa and Ghana

BACKGROUND: Lactase non-persistence is a condition where lactase activity is decreased in the intestinal wall after weaning. In European derived populations a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) C/T(-13910 )residing 13.9 kb upstream from the lactase gene has been shown to define lactase activity, a...
