Nine-bp repeat polymorphism in exon 1 of thehmsh3 gene


Play all audios:

SUMMARY We have identified a polymorphic 9-bp repeat sequence in exon 1 of the_hMSH3_ gene using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Five alleles were observed in unrelated Japanese individuals


with heterozygosity of 0.57. SIMILAR CONTENT BEING VIEWED BY OTHERS POPULATION GENETICS OF 30 INSERTION/DELETION POLYMORPHISMS IN THE BAHRAINI POPULATION Article Open access 25 March 2021
