Distribution and frequency of a polymorphic Alu insertion at the plasminogen activator locus in humans.

Human genetics - 1 Jun 1996

Tishkoff S A, Ruano G, Kidd J R, Kidd K K

Abstract excerpt

We have investigated the frequency distribution, across a broad range of geographically dispersed populations, of alleles of the polymorphic Alu insertion that occurs within the 8th intron of the tissue plasminogen, activator gene (PLAT). This Alu is a member of a recently derived subfamily of Alu elements that has been expanding during human evolution and continues to be transpositionally active. We used a...
