Abstract excerpt
A dimorphic MspI RFLP (alleles M1 and M2) in an Alu unit 528 base pairs downstream from the apolipoprotein A-II gene on chromosome 1 was investigated for associations with dyslipoproteinaemia or coronary atherosclerosis. No significant differences were observed between the allele frequencies in h...
