<p>A novel highly polymorphic DNA marker based on the pentanucleotide repeat (CCTTT/GGAAA)n has been identified in the human inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene. Twelve different alleles, having between 7 and 18 contiguous repeats, have been identified. The repeat is highly polymorphic in the human population and so lends itself to use as a microsatellite marker with uses in, for example, forensic medicine, population studies, family linkage studies and disease diagnosis.</p> |
