ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the distribution of their haplotypes in caspase-3 gene in Zhejiang Han nationality in China.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) and DNA sequencing were used to detect the SNPs in the regulatory region and the exons 2-7 and their flanking sequences in caspase-3 gene. Expectation maximization (EM) algorithm was used for haplotype frequencies analysis and pairwise linkage disequilibrium test.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) Three SNPs were identified in caspase-3 gene; the three sites C829A, A17532C and C20541T were located in 5' regulatory region, intron 4 and 3' regulatory region, respectively. (2) Strong linkage disequilibrium was found among these SNPs; site A17532C and C20541T were in complete linkage disequilibrium. (3) C-829/A-17532/C-20541 (54.3%) was the main haplotype of Zhejiang Han nationality.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The above findings indicated there is strong linkage disequilibrium among the three SNPs in caspase-3 gene in Han nationality of Zhejiang province and the main haplotype of Han nationality is obviously different from that of North American.</p>
