โฆ Synopsis
The polymorphism is located within exon 5 of the human coagulation factor VII gene and is silent at the amino acid level. The distribution pattern is similar in Caucasians and African Americans. This polymorphism may be useful for restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) diagnosis of factor X deficiency as well as factor VII deficiency, since the factor X gene is closely linked to the factor VII locus.

Of the 645 Japanese subjects studied, we have identified 10 individuals heterozygous for a chromosome with the triplicated alpha-globin loci. The frequency of the triple alpha-loci was 0.008 in this population, while that of the single alpha-locus, i.e., alpha-thalassemia 2 gene, might be lower than
