Abstract excerpt
The H19 gene is a paternally imprinted gene located on chromosome 11p15.5. In this study the H19FR haplotype polymorphism including three SNPs upstream of the H19 gene was investigated. Six genotypes derived from three alleles were detected in the Japanese population by means of PCR and subsequent constant denaturing gel electrophoresis. Based on the methylation status of the genomic DNA from blood samples,...
