Heritability and heteromorphic distributions of AluI chromosome banding variants in twins.

American journal of medical genetics - 3 Jul 1995

Abstract excerpt

The heritability and heteromorphic appearance of chromosomal banding patterns induced through in situ digestion with the restriction enzyme AluI were studied by analyzing the chromosomes of 25 monozygotic and 25 dizygotic twin pairs selected at random from a juvenile twin registry. A total of 19 AluI banding variants were found to be heteromorphic, with the pericentromeric region of chromosome 3 and the...
