Genetic polymorphism of mitochondrial glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase in Japanese.

abstract：:To better understand the evolutionary history of the gene region containing the multifunctional adipose tissue hormone leptin, we genotyped 1,957 individuals from 12 world populations for a highly variable tetranucleotide repeat polymorphism located 476 bp 3' of exon 3 of the leptin gene. Common alleles shared among p...
