Genetic interplay between HLA-C and MIR148A in HIV control and Crohn disease

Variation in the 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) of the HLA-C locus determines binding of the microRNA Hsa-miR-148a, resulting in lower cell surface expression of alleles that bind miR-148a relative to those alleles that escape its binding. The HLA-C 3′UTR variant was shown to associate with HIV cont...
