Science - Abstract
Immunoglobulin A protects against infectious disease and contributes to autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. Here, the authors perform a genome-wide association study for serum IgA levels, identifying 20 genome-wide significant loci, providing new insights into the genetic regulation of IgA levels.
