Interestingly, the MAF of the atherosclerosis (ALOX5P, ALOX5 g.20C>T, g.8322G>A, and g.50778G>A), type-1 and type-2 diabetes (CAPN10 g.4834T>C, TCF7L2 g.98386G>T, and PTPN22 g.36677C>T), and Hirschsprung disease (RET g.9349G>A) associated polymorphisms were found to be similar to those of European populations. This evidence concerns the gene ALOX5 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
