CA repeat polymorphism of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene in the Japanese

Hum Hered. 1995 Sep-Oct;45(5):301-2. doi: 10.1159/000154316.

Abstract

CA repeat polymorphism in the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene was studied by the polymerase chain reaction. The distribution of allele frequencies in the Japanese was determined, and found to differ from that in Caucasians.
