Abstract excerpt
Linkage relationships between DNA polymorphism metH/TaqI as well as KM19/PstI and the mutation causing cystic fibrosis (CF) were analyzed in 48 families from Slovakia with th occurrence of CF. The polymorphism metH/TaqI did not show linkage disequilibrium with CF mutation. A pronounced allelic association was however found between CF mutation and KM19/PstI polymorphism. Of the 83 CF chromosomes analyzed, the...
