DNA: cDNA Insert lengths(kb): 2.099999904632568 Tissue: adult liver Gene product: alpha-2-macroglobulin [A2M] Alleles: B2, C2, E1, A2, B1, B1, C1, D1, D2, E2, F1, F2, A1, B2, E1, E2 |
| Comments |
Restriction digests of the clone give the following sizes (kb): PstI--3.8, 1.4, 0.66; EcoRI--5.9; ClaI--4.4, 1.48; AvaI--3.3, 2.6; BamHI--5.9. The insert encodes amino acids 809-1451 of the alpha-2-microglobulin gene. Codominant segregation of the BglII polymorphism demonstrated in 2 families. Codominant segregation of the PvuII polymorphism demonstrated in 5 families. Codominant segregation of the HinfI polymorphism demonstrated in 5 families (35 individuals). Codominant segregation of the PvuII polymorphism demonstrated in 2 families (20 individuals). HaeIII, HinfI and PuvII RFLPs are independent mutations. Enzyme(s) not detecting polymorphism (in a panel of 5): BamHI, HincII, RsaI, HindIII, MspI, PstI. Enzyme(s) not detecting polymorphism: AvaII, BamHI, EcoRV, StuI, AluI, NciI, MspI, PstI. Enzyme(s) not detecting polymorphism: HindIII, KpnI, MspI, PstI, SacI, ScaI, XbaI, XmnI. |
