Figure 1. A schematic view of the association results and LD structure of the human MBP gene locus at chromosome 18q23.
SNPs located between rs470131 and rs2717096 are plotted in −log10 scale according to their chromosomal positions and p-values calculated with Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test. Red circle indicates mhp-value of rs2000811 by meta-analysis using the combined results of collections 1 to 4. Relative locations of the genes in the region are shown with their transcriptional orientations by arrows. LD blocks were generated using the genome scan results.
