A new biallelic DNA polymorphism of the human COL5A1 gene

Hum Genet. 1995 May;95(5):599-600. doi: 10.1007/BF00223882.

Abstract

A cDNA probe of the human COL5A1 gene detects a frequent biallelic PstI polymorphism. Allele A has a frequency of 54% whereas that of allele B is 46%. This restriction fragment length polymorphism provides a useful marker for linkage analysis in 9q34.3.
