Polynucleotides comprising single nucleotide polymorphism derived from DEFA4 gene, microarrays and diagnostic kits comprising the same, and detection methods using the same

摘要

The present invention provides a polynucleotide or its complementary polynucleotide comprising a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) derived from a gene on chromosome 8, in particular, a defensin alpha 4 (corticostatin) gene. Polynucleotides or their complementary polynucleotides can be used as markers for the clinical diagnosis of autism.;Autism, Monobasic, DEFA4
