A novel AvaI polymorphism within exon 5 of the rhodopsin gene.
We identified a novel AvaI polymorphism within 3' non-coding region within exon 5 of the human rhodopsin gene and determined the allele frequency in a Japanese population. The polymorphism was found to be due to A/G transversion at nucleotide 5510 of the gene.
