Interaction at clinical level between erythrocyte acid phosphatase and adenosine deaminase genetic polymorphisms

Hum Genet. 1989 Jun;82(3):213-5. doi: 10.1007/BF00291156.

Abstract

The effects of ACP1 phenotype on birth weight, neonatal jaundice, and obesity in children are dependent on ADA genotype. These phenomena may represent a clinical counterpart of the in vitro biochemical interactions between the two systems recently observed by our group.
