vitamin D binding protein (DBP)

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to isolate genotype-specific DBP/Gc from homozygous human volunteers and use these purified proteins to cross-validate existing or novel assays for this serum protein and to evaluate the binding characteristics of these variants of DBP/Gc for different vitamin D metabolites.
