Abstract

LMP7-B/B may be the protective genotype, and LMP7-B/A may be the susceptible genotype of DM-1, and this may not be affected by the DR3 gene. Persons with LMP7-B/B may have a decreased risk, and those with LMP7-B/A have an increased risk suffering from DM-1. The LMP7 gene may not be associated with the age of diabetic onset.
