Fig. 1.
Genetic variations in MCM6-gene. The chromosome 2 with LCT and MCM6 gene (McIntosh and Scheinfeldt, 2012) is shown with two specific SNPs at intronic positions 13 and 9.
Fig. 2.
Chromatograms of SNP at INTRON 13 in the MCM6-gene. In mutant types A shows the partial heterozygosity with both alleles C/T. In mutant type B shows allele T in place of allele C. In wild type the actual gene with C allele is shown.
Fig. 3.
Chromatograms of SNP at INTRON 9 in theMCM6-Gene. In mutant type A shows the partial heterozygosity with both alleles G/A is shown. In mutant type B allele A in place of allele G is shown. C, in wild type the actual gene with G allele is shown.
