Abstract excerpt
Previously, we have identified two alternate allelic forms of cytosine 5-methyltransferase, 5-MT I and 5-MT II, specified by polymorphic fragments of 1.5 and 1.1 kb, respectively. In the presence study, a 0.8-kb genomic probe was prepared which was confirmed to be included within the polymorphic fragments. The 0. 8-kb probe hybridised with greater intensity to the 1.1-kb fragment than the 1.5-kb fragment....
