Coeliac disease is a complex disorder influenced by environmental and genetic factors. A genome wide linkage study identified the myosin IXB (MYO9B) as a gene possibly associated with coeliac disease. Recently, a Dutch study reported a strong association of a single SNP, rs 2305764, of MYO9B with coeliac disease. However, two successive studies carried out on British and Swedish/Norwegian cohorts reported lack of association of the MYO9B variant with coeliac disease.
