title: Insertion/deletion polymorphism within a polyadenylate stretch at the human atrial natriuretic peptides (hANP) gene locus.
abstract: A novel 8-bp bi-allelic insertion/deletion polymorphism is described within a polyadenylate stretch in the second intron of the human atrial natriuretic peptide gene locus. This new marker is located in the candidate gene for familial susceptibility to hypertension.
