CA repeat polymorphism of the COL6A3 gene on chromosome 2q37.
A CA dinucleotide repeat has been identified in an intron of the human alpha3(VI) collagen gene (COL6A3) located on chromosome 2q37. Analysis of 100 chromosomes in unrelated Caucasians has demonstrated the existence of eight alleles, and the allelic frequencies have been determined.
