Due to the long-range effects of LD with variants in Dual Specificity Phosphatase 14 (DUSP14) and XPO1 (S1 Table), two novel genes were associated with increased TB susceptibility and increased resistance, namely, Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase Alpha (ACACA) and Activator Of Heat Shock 90kDa Protein ATPase Homolog 2 (ASHA2) respectively. The gene discussed is DUSP14; the disease is tuberculosis.
