A trinucleotide repeat combination polymorphism in the cardiac alpha myosin heavy chain (MYH6) gene.

M H van den Berg1, H Meijer, J P Geraedts.   

Abstract

A polymorphic trinucleotide repeat combination (GAA)m(GAG)n has been demonstrated in the cardiac alpha myosin heavy chain gene (MYH6), which is located on chromosome 14q, and which is sometimes involved in familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Based on length, at least seventeen alleles varying from 31 to 50 repeats have been detected in a sample of 55 unrelated individuals.
