Abstract excerpt
The vdr gene is a candidate for osteoporosis susceptibility, with conflicting results in association studies. We have designed and optimized an individual allele-specific and DNA pooling PCR-based methodology to quantitate BsmI and FokI polymorphisms of the vdr gene and studied single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from pooled DNA samples. The allele frequency in DNA pooling experiments has been analyzed by...
