Finally, genes and/or susceptibility loci on the long arm of chromosome 2 have been recently linked to blood pressure and hypertension by genome-wide association studies, such as STK39 at 2q24.3 [30]; PMS1 and MSTN, both at 2q32.2 [31]; DS2S2382 and DS2S338 at 2q35–q37 [32]. The gene discussed is STK39; the disease is Hypertension.
