Abstract excerpt
We studied the Hga I polymorphism (46 C/T) in the 5'-untranslated region of the coagulation factor XII (FXII) gene corresponding to four bases upstream from the ATG translation initiation codon. By using allele-specific restriction analysis with restriction endonuclease Hga I, the allele frequenc...
