[i] Acronyms used: (ACE) humanangiotensinogen-converting enzyme gene; (AGT) human angiotensinogen gene; (AT1R) human angiotensin II type I receptor gene. Designations of the polymorphic positions are as inHubert et al. 1991, Jeunemaitre et al. 1992, andBonnardeaux et al. 1994. A-226C and C-227G have been entitled according to standard principles for SNP nomenclature. Abbreviations: (ER) expected ratio, (AM) arithmetic mean; (RSD) relative standard deviation, the number limit for this operation was set to four; (n.d.) not determined; (B1a/B1) ratio between the initially appearing base of the respective SNP (in heterozygous samples) and a non-allelic counterpart; (B2a/B2) definition analogous with that of B1a/B1; (B1s/B1) ratio between the initial base of a homozygous SNP and a reference counterpart; (B2s/B2) definition analogous with that of B1s/B1. Index letters: (A) the dispensing scheme was as specified in Fig. 2B; (B) the nucleotide dispensing protocol was according to specification in Fig. 2C; (C) the 3′ end of the sequencing primer was annealed in 5′ juxtaposition, relative to the SNP; (D) the sequencing primer was located three bases in the upstream direction, in relation to the SNP; (E) the sequencing approach adhered to that of c; (F) the sequencing primer (3′ end) was positioned four bases 5′ of the SNP.
