Polymorphism and divergence in the beta-globin replication origin initiation regionS M Fullerton
Department of Biology, Pennsylvania State University, University Park 16802, USA
Mol Biol Evol 17:179-88. 2000..The significance of these findings for our understanding of eukaryotic replication origin biology is discussed...
Apolipoprotein E variation at the sequence haplotype level: implications for the origin and maintenance of a major human polymorphismS M Fullerton

Sequence polymorphism at the human apolipoprotein AII gene ( APOA2): unexpected deficit of variation in an African-American sampleStephanie M Fullerton
Institute of Molecular Evolutionary Genetics, Department of Biology, Pennsylvania State University, University Park 16802, USA
Hum Genet 111:75-87. 2002..The deficit of polymorphism is consistent with a population-specific non-neutral increase in the relative frequency of several haplotypes in Jackson...
The effects of scale: variation in the APOA1/C3/A4/A5 gene clusterStephanie M Fullerton
Department of Anthropology, Penn State University, 409 Carpenter Bldg, University Park, PA 16802, USA
Hum Genet 115:36-56. 2004..The implications of these findings for other haplotype-based descriptions of human variation are discussed...
Dissecting complex disease: the quest for the Philosopher's Stone?Anne V Buchanan
Department of Anthropology, Penn State University, University Park, PA 16802, USA
Int J Epidemiol 35:562-71. 2006..Finally, we ask whether most complex diseases are even good candidates for the kind of prediction and prevention that we have come to expect based on experience with infectious and Mendelian disease...
Geographic and haplotype structure of candidate type 2 diabetes susceptibility variants at the calpain-10 locusStephanie M Fullerton
Department of Human Genetics, The University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637, USA
Am J Hum Genet 70:1096-106. 2002..These results suggest a history of positive natural selection at the locus, resulting in significant geographic differences in polymorphism frequencies. The relationship of these differences to disease risk is discussed...

Menzies School of Health Research, Institute of Advanced Studies, Charles Darwin University, Casuarina NT, Australia
Perspect Biol Med 50:203-27. 2007..A robust interdisciplinary approach to genetic epidemiological research is proposed...
