Abstract excerpt
The gene mutated in ataxia telangiectasia (AT), the ATM gene, has recently been cloned and shown to encode a multi-domain protein with homology to cell-cycle regulators. We report here an intragenic restriction fragment length polymorphism of the ATM gene that is common in the German population with allele frequencies of 0.56 and 0.44, respectively. Observed heterozygosity approximated 50% in healthy individuals...
