We demonstrated that the association of FLG at 1q21.3, the cytokine gene cluster at 5q31.1, the C11orf30/LRRC32 region on chromosome 11q13.5, and the SERPINB gene cluster with food allergy was independent of the allergen whereas the HLA locus at 6p21 was clearly identified as a PN allergy-specific susceptibility locus. The gene discussed is LRRC32; the disease is food allergy.
