Allelic divergence in the human insulin gene provides evidence for intragenic recombination events in the non-coding regions: evidence for existence of new alleles.

Abstract excerpt

Intragenic polymorphism of the human insulin gene (INS) was investigated in Korean subjects. The 1.9 kb INS sequence, including the 5' to 3' flanking regions, was amplified using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and analyzed by direct sequencing. All nucleotide sequences in the coding regions were the same as INS sequences previously reported, and four nucleotides, at positions +216, +1045, +1367, and +1380...
