A DNA variation in the coding region of the human cystatin C gene has been detected by direct sequencing. The polymorphism, a G/A transition, leads to an Ala/Thr variation in the penultimate amino acid of the signal peptide. The base substitution results in the loss of a SstII restriction site, thus allowing the design of a rapid polymerase chain reaction assay for analysis of this polymorphism in the population.
通过直接测序检测到人类胱抑素C基因编码区存在一个DNA变异。该多态性为G/A转换,导致信号肽倒数第二个氨基酸由丙氨酸变为苏氨酸。碱基替换导致SstII限制性酶切位点丢失,从而能够设计一种快速聚合酶链反应检测方法,用于分析人群中的这种多态性。
