Isolation and radiation hybrid mapping of dinucleotide repeat polymorphism at the human matrix Gla protein (MGP) locus.

Journal of human genetics - 1 Jan 1998

Watanabe I, Tsukamoto K, Shiba T, Emi M

Abstract excerpt

Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is an 84-residue, vitamin K-dependent protein expressed by chondrocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells, and is a potent regulator of calcium deposition in cartilage and arterial wall. We isolated a polymorphic dinucleotide CA repeat marker from a genomic clone containing the human MGP gene. This polymorphism will be useful in genetic studies of arteriosclerosis and osteoporosis.
