  • Aunque las variantes proteicas truncadas pueden estar asociadas a una enfermedad, no siempre ocurre y, de hecho, en ocasiones ejercen un efecto protector , como él mismo descubrió en un artículo publicado en Nature Genetics en 2011, que demostraba cómo una variante que afecta a un sitio de corte y empalma (splicing) en el gen CARD9 proporciona una fuerte protección contra la enfermedad de Crohn y la colitis ulcerosa. (stanford.edu)
