Two noncoding variations in RET-the T allele of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2435357 (Enh1:C>T) and the A allele of the SNP rs2506004 (Enh2:C>A)-are associated with Hirschsprung's disease. These SNPs are in strong linkage disequilibrium and located in an enhancer element in intron 1 of the RET gene. The T allele of the Enh1 variant results in reduced expression of RET, compared with the C allele, because the T allele disrupts binding to the transcription factor SOX10. We studied whether the A allele of Enh2 (Enh2-A) also affects RET gene expression.
