Abstract excerpt
Allele frequency of D17S855 microsatellite locus, an intragenic polymorphic cytosine-adenine repeat located in the BRCA1 gene, was analyzed in 456 normal tissues of Japanese adults. The frequency of D17S855 microsatellite polymorphism was 77.9% (335/456). The size of D17S855 PCR fragments ranged from 137 to 157 bp. The most frequent allele was 151 bp (29.9%) followed by 149-bp (19.3%), 145-bp (17.5%), and 147-bp...
