Diversity of lactase persistence in African milk drinkers
The genetic trait of lactase persistence is attributable to allelic variants in an enhancer region upstream of the lactase gene, LCT. To date, five different functional alleles, −13910*T, −13907*G, −13915*G, −14009*G and −14010*C, have been identified. The co-occurrence of several of these alleles i...
