Abstract
|
|
|
|
MMP3 (Matrix metalloproteinase-3) is an important gene in the development of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. It is also reported that the genotype of MMP3 could be a factor for disease conditions. So, SNP analysis is a prerequisite to study MMP3 related diseases. However, statistical data or analytical reports of this gene in the Korean population is not available. We have employed PCR and ARMS technique to amplify the position of Lys45Glu which is located within chromosome 11q22.3 and exon 2. Genomic DNA were extracted from 201 people. We found that, 17 individuals had the wild homozygote type (W/W, 8%), 98 individuals had the SNP homozygote type (S/S, 49%), 86 had the heterozygote type (W/S, 43%). This study should facilitate research on the cause of cardiovascular diseases due to polymorphisms in the MMP3 gene and to develop further therapy at the genetic level.
