Abstract excerpt
The distribution of MspI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) alleles was investigated using the C6-PVX probe of the sixth component of complement (C6) and DNA from lymphocytes of 11 patients with homozygous C6 deficiency (C6Q0), 18 of their family members, 3 patients with subtotal C6 deficiency (C6SD) and 28 normal C6-sufficient controls. A biallelic polymorphism of 12.5- and 8.2-kb RFLP alleles was...
