Abstract excerpt
A hypervariable region has been described 3' to the human apolipoprotein B (apo B) gene. Using the polymerase chain reaction amplification followed by agarose gel electrophoresis, at least 16 different alleles can be distinguished. In order to introduce this system into forensic DNA analysis detailed knowledge of the allele frequency is one of the most important prerequisites. For this reason we studied the...
