A GT dinucleotide repeat polymorphism in intron 1 of the H-cadherin (CDH13) gene.
A polymorphic dinucleotide (GT) repeat sequence was isolated from a genomic clone containing the human H-cadherin (CDH13) gene at 16q24.1-q24.2. This polymorphic marker will be a useful tool in the genetic study of various cancers.
