Abstract excerpt
An intragenic elastin Hinf I polymorphism has been used to study the inheritance of elastin alleles in a family considered to show recessive inheritance of pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE). The marker has proved informative, excluding the elastin gene as a cause of PXE in this family. In addition, whole genomic human elastin clones were used in Southern analysis to screen the family for gross elastin gene...
