Abstract excerpt

Placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) and germ cell alkaline phosphatase (GCAP) are controlled by closely linked genes on chromosome 2q34-q37. In previous investigations, associations have been found between PLAP types and spontaneous abortion. In this study, PLAP and GCAP RFLPs and haplotypes we...
