| Popis: |
By examining Latin American individuals of mixed European, Native American and African ancestry, Adhikari et al. identify novel loci influencing various features of facial and scalp hair. The study also provides experimental evidence that one of the implicated genes (PRSS53) is expressed in the hair follicle and that the top associated variant alters processing of this enzyme. |
