High impact information on Polymorphism, Genetic

  • Taken together, these data suggest that the Sipa1 polymorphism is one of the genetic polymorphisms underlying the Mtes1 locus [11].
  • A genetic polymorphism of paraoxonase (PON) activity which determines high versus low paraoxon hydrolysis in human populations, may determine sensitivity to parathion poisoning [12].
  • Recently, three genetic polymorphisms of human metabolic oxidation have been demonstrated (as characterized by debrisoquine, mephenytoin and carbocysteine), with the metabolism of several substrates exhibiting the phenomenon [13].
  • Class I polypeptides expressed at the H-2K and H-2D loci of numerous mouse strains exhibit an unusually high degree of genetic polymorphism, which is assumed to be related to their function as primary recognition elements in the immune response [14].
  • The occurrence of insulin-dependent (type I) diabetes (IDDM) is strongly associated with HLA-DR3 and/or 4 (ref. 5). The class II antigens, however, show a marked genetic polymorphism associated with the beta-chains which seem, from hybridization studies, to be encoded by several genes [15].
