      Santos, Alonso; Ribas, Gloria; Ibarrola-Villava, Maider; Peña Chilet, María; Martinez-Cadenas, Conrado; Gardeazabal, Jesús; Careaga, Jesús María; Pérez-Yarza, Gorka; Sánchez-Díez, Ana; Ratón-Nieto, Juan Antonio; Arroyo-Berdgo, Yoana; Carretero, Gregorio; Martín González, Manuel; Gómez Fernández, Cristina; Nagore, Eduardo; Asumendi, Aintzane; Boyano, Dolores Public Library of Science (2014)
      Single nucleotide-polymorphisms (SNPs) are a source of diversity among human population, which may be responsible for the different individual susceptibility to diseases and/or response to drugs, among other phenotypic ...
    • openAccess   Simultaneous purifying selection on the ancestral MC1R allele and positive selection on the melanoma-risk allele V60L in South Europeans 

      Martinez-Cadenas, Conrado; López, Saioa; Ribas, Gloria; Flores, Carlos; García, Oscar; Sevilla, Arrate; Smith-Zubiaga, I.; Ibarrola-Villava, Maider; Pino-Yanes, M .; Gardeazabal, Jesús; Boyano, Dolores; García de Galdeano, Alicia; Izagirre, Neskuts; de la Rúa, Concepción; Alonso, Santos Oxford University Press (2013)
      In humans, the geographical apportionment of the coding diversity of the pigmentary locus melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) is, unusually, higher in Eurasians than in Africans. This atypical observation has been interpreted ...
