Abstract excerpt
Two polymorphic sites are located within the heterozygous TK1 locus in the human lymphoblastoid cell line TK6: an inactivating frameshift in exon 4 of the nonfunctional allele and a phenotypically silent frameshift in exon 7 of the functional allele. Through the use of these intragenic polymorphisms and microsatellite markers that flank TK1, we demonstrate that partial gene conversion accounts for 3/75 (0.04)...
