22 DISCUSSION maintained because the heterozygote is ‘¢tter’ than either homozygote. As soon as you leave the malarial areas the sickle cell mutation is lost. So my question was, have we selected for two alleles within some immune system genes as a result of balancing selection (perhaps due to protection from local pathogens), and are some of these alleles now predisposing us to autoimmunity? Kere: I’d like to moderate the emphasis on selection. From the little I have learned in the past, when you look at neutral markers which many blood group antigens are supposed to be, there is a lot of variation in their frequencies between populations that is purely drift.
Haplotypes were reconstructed with GENEHUNTER. The ideal set of relatives included both parents along with either a couple of sibs or a grandparent. This analysis directed the collection of close relatives of both cases and controls. Four or ¢ve relatives were collected for each case and control. These, along with the case and control were genotyped at an average density of 5 cM using the Applied Biosystems HD-5TM marker set. The collection of close relatives not only allowed accurate haplotype reconstruction but was also extremely useful in identifying genotyping errors, which can be very misleading in an association study.
Abbas: I want to take Chris Goodnow’s reasoning one step further. The prediction is that there won’t be many changes from the starting population to the current population. What is the implication of this? Goldstein: You might expect rare variants to be changed to a degree, but not common variants. The point is that this strategy applied in Tasmania wouldn’t be expected to identify long-range at-risk haplotypes because they have been ampli¢ed in frequency by the drift process. This is what I understood the expectation to be here.
