Abstract excerpt
Two (ATT) trinucleotide repeat polymorphisms have been identified in the tails of Alu repeat elements in intron 5 of the antithrombin gene. The frequency and distribution of allele sizes for the Alu 5 and Alu 8 tail polymorphisms have been defined in a sample Caucasian population. The Alu 5 polymorphism has two alleles while that of Alu 8 has 10 alleles with a heterozygosity of 0.83. These polymorphisms have been...
