Abstract excerpt
In polygenetic disorders, such as ischemic heart disease, the investigation of gene-gene interactions rather than determination of single gene effects is crucial to better understand the contribution of genetic factors. The 825T allele of the G-protein ss(3)-subunit gene (GNB3) associated with enhanced G-protein signaling is a candidate to interact with the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) deletion/insertion...
