A genome-wide search replicates evidence of a quantitative trait locus for circulating angiotensisn l-converting enzyme (ACE) unlinked to the ACE gene
Background: angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) plays an important role in cardiovascular homeostasis. There is evidence from different ethnic groups that circulating ACE levels are influenced by a quantitative trait locus (QTL) at the ACE gene on chromosome 17. The finding of significant residual...
