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...
