Differences in DNA Methylation and Functional Expression in Lactase Persistent and Non-persistent Individuals

Abstract In humans the expression of lactase changes during post-natal development, leading to phenotypes known as lactase persistence and non-persistence. Polymorphisms within the lactase gene (LCT) enhancer, in particular the −13910C > T, but also others, are linked to these phenotypes. We were...
