Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: The BsmI polymorphism in the VDR gene has been extensively investigated by PCR and restriction digestion in bone genetics. A SNP within the corresponding region for the previously published reverse primer was observed and confirmed by DNA sequencing. BsmI mis-genotyping caused by this SNP could confound genetic findings. INTRODUCTION: By analyzing the FokI, BsmI, ApaI, and TaqI polymorphisms in the...
