Abstract
⺠We conducted a systematic survey of naturally occurring HPGDS enzyme variants. ⺠A high stability Val187Ile variant occurs in 8% of African Americans and 2% of Caucasians. ⺠Val187Ile does not protect against colon cancer. ⺠Other methods will be needed to establish a role for HPGDS in development of human intestinal tumors, as shown by mouse model data.
