Exome sequencing identifies DLG1 as a novel gene for potential susceptibility to Crohn's disease in a Chinese family study.

<h4>Background</h4>Genetic variants make some contributions to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). More than 100 susceptibility loci were identified in Western IBD studies, but susceptibility gene has not been found in Chines...
