Abstract excerpt
The Kalow allele for cholinesterase is a quantitative variant of the usual gene and has been shown to result from a single base pair change in the DNA. A new method based on the polymerase chain reaction to distinguish Kalow alleles of the cholinesterase gene was developed. Using the amplification refractory mutagenesis system, two different reactions distinguished the presence of a guanine (normal E1u allele)...
