Abstract
The disclosure provides nucleic acid molecules, including cDNA, comprising an alteration that encodes variant human Solute Carrier Family 14 Member 1 (SLC14A1) proteins that associate with protection against coronary artery disease (CAD). The disclosure also provides methods for classifying subjects at risk of developing a coagulation condition, based on the identification of such alterations.
Claims16
A cDNA encoding a human Solute Carrier Family 14 Member 1 (SLC14A1) protein, comprising a nucleic acid sequence which is:
- at least about 90%, at least about 95%, at least about 96%, at least about 97%, at least about 98%, or at least about 99% identical to SEQ ID NO:9, provided that the nucleic acid sequence encodes an amino acid sequence which comprises an isoleucine at the position corresponding to position 76 according to SEQ ID NO:13, or the complement thereof;
- or
- at least about 90%, at least about 95%, at least about 96%, at least about 97%, at least about 98%, or at least about 99% identical to SEQ ID NO:10, provided that the nucleic acid sequence encodes an amino acid sequence which comprises isoleucine at the position corresponding to position 132 according to SEQ ID NO:14, or the complement thereof.
The cDNA according to claim 86, wherein the nucleic acid sequence comprises SEQ ID NO:10.
An isolated alteration-specific probe or primer comprising at least about 15 nucleotides and which hybridizes to a nucleic acid sequence encoding an SLC14A1 protein, wherein the alteration-specific probe or primer comprises:
- a nucleic acid sequence which is complementary to the portion of the SLC14A1 encoding nucleic acid sequence which encodes an isoleucine at the position corresponding to position 76 according to SEQ ID NO:13, or to the complement thereof;
- or
- a nucleic acid sequence which is complementary to the portion of the SLC14A1 encoding nucleic acid sequence which encodes an isoleucine at the position corresponding to position 132 according to SEQ ID NO:14, or to the complement thereof.
An isolated alteration-specific probe or primer comprising a nucleic acid sequence which is complementary to a nucleic acid sequence encoding an SLC14A1 protein having an isoleucine at the position corresponding to position 76 according to SEQ ID NO:13 and/or which is complementary to a nucleic acid sequence encoding an SLC14A1 protein having an isoleucine at the position corresponding to position 132 according to SEQ ID NO:14, wherein the alteration-specific probe or primer comprises a nucleic acid sequence which is complementary to a portion of the nucleic acid sequence comprising the positions corresponding to:
- positions 6963 to 6965 according to SEQ ID NO:2, or the complement thereof;
- positions 226 to 228 according to SEQ ID NO:5, or the complement thereof;
- positions 394 to 396 according to SEQ ID NO:6, or the complement thereof;
- positions 226 to 228 according to SEQ ID NO:9, or the complement thereof;
- positions 394 to 396 according to SEQ ID NO:10, or the complement thereof.
