Origin of the polymorphism of the involucrin gene in Asians.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Jun 1995

Djian P, Delhomme B, Green H

Abstract excerpt

The involucrin gene, encoding a protein of the terminally differentiated keratinocyte, is polymorphic in the human. There is polymorphism of marker nucleotides a two positions in the coding region, and there are over eight polymorphic forms based on the number and kind of 10-codon tandem repeats in that part of the coding region most recently added in the human lineage. The involucrin alleles of Caucasians and...
