Lactase
Das LCT-Gen kodiert ein Verdauungsenzym, welches Lactose in Glucose und Galactose spaltet. Mutationen führen zur autosomal rezessiven Erkrankung der kongenitalen Lactoseintoleranz. Die Expression wird über verschiedene Polymorphismen im nichtkodierenden Bereich des benachbarten MCM6-Gens gesteuert.
