Gene map and polymorphisms identified in the human interferon-induced transmembrane protein 1 (IFITM1) gene on chromosome 11. a The black block indicates the open reading frame (ORF), and the white block indicates the 5′ untranslated region (UTR). Horizontal bar with edges indicates the region sequenced. Arrows indicate the novel polymorphisms found in this study. b Electropherogram of 3 novel single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), c.-416C > G, c.-327A > C and c.186 + 18G > A, identified in this study. The four colors indicate individual bases of DNA sequence determined using an ABI 3730 automatic sequencer (blue: cytosine, red: thymine, black: guanine, green: adenine)
