Figure 1.
Haplotype analyses among TLR2, TLR4, and TLR9 SNPs. The TLR9 (chromosome 3), TLR4 (chromosome 9), and TLR2 (chromosome 4) genes cover 4, 10, and 20 kb, respectively. The location of the genotyped SNPs is indicated with vertical lines. Pairwise linkage disequilibrium (LD) (D’) that was observed in the research population (n = 476) is also depicted. The figure shows R2 values for pairwise comparison of the different polymorphisms. R2 = 0 represents no LD correlation; R2 = 1 represents high (maximum) LD correlation. TLR, Toll-like receptor; SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism.
