Abstract excerpt
The von Willebrand factor gene intron 40 variable number tandem repeat VWF.VNTR I exhibits 10 alleles making it highly polymorphic and useful for parentage and forensic testing, 45 unrelated families (210 meiotic events) were tested for VWF.VNTR I alleles. One spontaneous mutation was observed in a family member. Haplotype analysis demonstrated that this mutation was due to a gain of one motif repeat by a...
