Abstract excerpt
Urinary kallikrein excretion has been shown statistically to be partially determined by a major gene in large Utah pedigrees with the use of segregation analysis. A previous twin analysis of environmental factors influencing urinary kallikrein level showed that urinary potassium twin differences were strongly related to differences in urinary kallikrein. The present study uses 769 individuals in 58 Utah pedigrees...
