Polymorphisms and new genes in the region of the human hemochromatosis gene
摘要
<p>Polymorphic sites in the region surrounding the HFE gene are provided. These polymorphisms are useful as surrogate markers in diagnostic asseys for hemochromatosis. Additionally, a fine structure map of the 1 megabase region surrounding the HFE gene is provided, along with 235 kb of DNA sequence and 8 loci corresponding to candidate genes within the 1 megabase region, and in the purification of related proteins.</p>
