Abstract excerpt

The apolipoprotein B-encoding gene (apoB) 3' end hypervariable repeats contain 11- to 16-bp A+T-rich sequences and are organized tandemly. Sixteen alleles varying in repeat number (26, 29, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49, 51, 53, 55 and 58) were sequenced. Sequencing revealed a gradual ext...
