A polymorphic (CA)n repeat element maps the human glucokinase gene (GCK) to chromosome 7p.

Abstract excerpt

A compound imperfect dinucleotide repeat element, [CA]4TTTGT[CT]7[CA]9AA[CA]4CCACATA[CA]3, was found approximately 10 kb 3' to the human glucokinase gene (GCK) from analysis of contiguous genomic DNA obtained from a bacteriophage lambda chromosome walk. Direct human genomic sequencing revealed the source of polymorphism to be variable numbers of CT and CA repeats. Altogether six alleles that range in length from...
