Additional file 9: Figure S4. of Multiallelic copy number variation in the complement component 4A (C4A) gene is associated with late-stage age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

Abstract

AMD associated haplotypes at the C2/CFB locus on chromosome 6. The phase at C2/CFB was assessed with SHAPEIT2 for each individual. In total, we found six haplotypes (H1-H6) with an allele frequency ≥ 1 % in the study. The haplotypes are characterized by the presence or absence of AMD associated alleles from four inpendent variations at this locus (rs429608, rs114190211, rs204993 and rs142511358 [9]). C4A CNVs are predominantly present on the adverse haplotype H2 (carrying the G allele of rs204993) and the protective haplotype H3 (carrying the A allele of rs429608). OR = Odds ratio, [95 % CI] = 95 % confidence intervals, SD = standard deviation. The haplotypes were numbered according to their frequency. (TIF 2488 kb
