No effect of a BglI polymorphism at the renin (REN) locus on blood pressure level or variability.

Clinical genetics - 1 Dec 1994

Berge K E, Berg K

Abstract excerpt

We have studied a normal restriction fragment length polymorphism at the renin locus, detected with the restriction enzyme BglI in healthy Norwegians. No association with blood pressure level or variability was found. Thus, the normal genes detected by examination of this restriction fragment len...
