The human osteonectin gene (OSN) has TaqI and MspI polymorphisms

An MspI polymorphism in the human acid sphingomyelinase gene (SMPD1).

Protocol: To detect the 506 polymorphism, a 567 bp SMPD1 genomic fragment is amplified using sense (5'-AGTAGTCGACATGGGCAGGATGTGTGG-3') and antisense (5'-AGTAGTGTCGACTTGCCTGGTTGAACC AC AGC-3') primers. Dot-blot hybridization is performed using allele-specific oligonucleotides for 506-Arg (5'-ACTACTCCAGGAGCTCT-3') and for 506-Gly (5'-ACTACTCCGGGAGCTCT-3'), which are hybridized at 42°C and washed ...

MspI RFLP in the human fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH) gene.

TaqI polymorphism in the human LDL receptor gene.

SOURCE AND DESCRIPTION : The probe that contains exon 1 to 8 was generated from pLDLR3. pLDLR3 contains a full-length LDL receptor cDNA (Yamamoto et at. , 1984) POLYMORPHISM : TaqI identifies a bi-allelic polymorphism with a band of 1.7kb and 0.6kb. FREQUENCY : Studies in 55 unrelated normal Japanese. 1.7Vb fragment 0.69 0.6kb fragment 0.31 NOT POLYMORPHISMS : In 50 individuals no polymorphisms...

Vitamin D Receptor Gene BSMI, FOKI, APAI, and TAQI Polymorphisms and the Risk of Atopic Dermatitis.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The association between vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms and the risk of skin diseases has been widely studied, yet there is only one study on atopic dermatitis. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between 4 VDR polymorphisms and atopic dermatitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS This cross-sectional case control study was performed between March 20...

A TaqI polymorphism in the human cyclin A gene.

PCR Conditions: The PCR reaction is carried out in a total volume of 50 /*1 containing approximately 250 ng DNA, 2 units Taq DNA polymerase, 50 pmol of each primer, 200 /M dNTP's, 10 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.3, 50 mM KC1, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 0.001% gelatin. The amplification is performed for 30 cycles with an annealing temperature of 60°C. The amplified product is digested with TaqI and the DNA fragments are...
