Abstract
We describe three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the human colony-stimulating factor 2 (CSF2) gene and their allelic frequencies, as determined by direct sequencing of 48 alleles of the entire CSF2 gene. Three polymorphisms were identified, at nucleotide positions 1816 (T/C), 2284 (C/T), and 3079 (G/A). These polymorphisms will be useful in genetic studies not only of hematologic disorders but also of disorders of bone metabolism.
