Abstract excerpt
The decoded amino acid sequence of a salivary protein variant, histatin 3-2 (formerly termed Pb c), that is found primarily and in high frequency in Black populations was determined by genomic PCR and direct sequencing of the HIS2(2) allele. Two different mutations that cause coding changes were...
