This study confirms the presence of a novel variable number of tandem repeats polymorphism, designated as HumDN1, in intron 4 of the human deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) gene. Genotyping was performed without difficulty by PCR-amplification and separation by agarose gel electrophoresis in 423 Japanese, originating from four geographically diverse areas in Japan, and 89 Germans. The HumDN1 allele variability was...
