The tissue distribution of hexosaminidase S and hexosaminidase C.

abstract：:Two popular and robust approaches to analysing affected sib pair (ASP) data for linkage are the traditional excess sharing methods and the transmission/disequilibrium test (TDT). Here we derive an overall test of linkage for multi-allelic ASP marker data which comprises two component tests: one for excess sharing and ...
