In a recent linkage analysis of genome-wide gene-expression patterns in lymphoblastoid lines, the gene encoding the leukocyte-derived arginine aminopeptidase (LRAP) was identified as having its expression levels modulated by one of the most pronounced effects in cis, mapping to a single-nucleotide polymorphism (rs2762). As this enzyme has an important role in processing antigenic peptides for the HLA I molecules, a variant that drastically modulates its expression levels might affect risk of autoimmunity. This study was designed to confirm that LRAP expression in B-cell derived lines is controlled by a haplotype marked by rs2762 and to see whether this would be the basis of an association with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
