Structure and sequence variation at the human leptin receptor gene in lean and obese Pima Indians.

Human molecular genetics - 1 May 1997

Thompson D B, Ravussin E, Bennett P H, Bogardus C

Abstract excerpt

The cloning of human and mouse cDNAs from brain that encode high affinity leptin receptors was recently reported. We have physically localized the human leptin receptor gene (LEPR) to a region at 1p31, between the anonymous microsatellite markers D1S515 and D1S198. The genomic structure of the hu...
