CA repeat polymorphism at the D5S82 locus, proximal to adenomatous polyposis coli (APC).

Source and Description: The polymorphic CA repeat CAYN5.64c was isolated and characterized from cosmid cYN5.64 (D5S82) (1). From the same cosmid a PstI and a TaqI RFLP were previously characterized (1). Polymorphism and Frequency: Six alleles were detected in a sample of 51 unrelated Dutch volunteers. PIC 0.70 Inheritance: Autosomal co-dominant segregation was observed in 25 Dutch families.
