Abstract excerpt
Currently, identification of alleles within the short sequence repeat locus (SSR locus) of intron 40 of the von Willebrand factor gene (previously known as VNTR II) is based on the size of PCR products that only predicts a certain number of repeats. Through cloning and sequencing, we demonstrated the complexity of nucleotide sequence structure of this region by describing three polymorphic tetranucleotide repeat...
