ABSTRACT
Objective To study the Secretor gene (FUT2) molecular structure of Uighur population in Xinjiang area,China. Methods DNA was extracted from 40 Uygur unrelated donors' blood and sequence analysis of FUT2 genes was performed. Results Four mutations in the FUT2 genes of Uighur donors have been identified. The frequencies of mutations were 71.25% for 357T, 28.75% for 357C,77.50% for 385A,22.50% for 385T,70% for 428G,30% for 428A,72.50% for 739G and 27.50% for 739A. Conclusion Based on the characteristics of FUT2 gene structure of Xinjiang Uighur,it cauld be thought that there are some relationships between Xinjiang Uighur, Taiwanese of China and Caucasiany.
