Cyclic AMP-Responsive Element Modulator α Polymorphisms Are Potential Genetic Risks for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Figure 1

(a) Thirty-six CREMα SNPs were shown with linkage disequilibrium (LD); the intensity of LD is reflected in the color and digital value of each box. (b) The LD structure and location of four tagSNPs. Red represents strong linkage; white represents no linkage. Digital value in each box represents the values ×100 for linkage disequilibrium between the two corresponding SNPs; the maximum value is 1, which indicates complete linkage.
