FRAGMENTO

En los últimos años, los estudios de asociación de genoma amplio (GWAS) han representado una nueva herramienta para investigar la estructura genética de enfermedades con herencia compleja. El ensayo de varios cientos de miles de polimorfismos de nucleótido único (SNP) en miles de individuos no relacionados ha permito identificar y replicar numerosas asociaciones de variaciones genéticas comunes en al menos un ciento de estas enfermedades.
