abstract：:The objectives of this study were to elucidate the genetic basis of human deoxyribonuclease II (DNase II) and to evaluate its usefulness as a genetic and/or diagnostic marker. We have devised a novel, specific and highly sensitive assay method for the urinary and leukocytic enzymes (Yasuda et al. 1991). The distributi...
