Abstract:
We found a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in exon 3 of the human organic cation transporter-like 2-antisense (ORCTL2S) gene: a base substitution A266G which was confirmed by direct sequencing. Heterozygosity of the polymorphic alleles was 0.45 in a Japanese population. This polymorphism will be useful in the allelic expression analysis of the ORCTL2S gene.
