Analysis of two different tandem repetitive elements within the human apolipoprotein B gene.

Journal of lipid research - 1 Feb 1991

Ludwig E H, Haubold K, McCarthy B J

Abstract excerpt

A large number of copies of the sequence (dTG-dAC)n, where n is between 10 and 60, exist in the human genome, and many are useful as polymorphic markers. One of these sequences occurs about 3 kilobases 5' of the human apolipoprotein (apo) B gene as seven distinguishable alleles containing from (TG)12 to (TG)18. This repeat is also present in the DNA of other primates. A second alternating purine-pyrimidine...
