The Short Tandem Repeat of the DMT1 Gene as a Molecular Marker of Elite Long-Distance Runners

The DMT1 gene encodes divalent metal transporter 1, a membrane iron transport protein. Divalent metal transporter 1 influences cellular iron availability, which might further affect aerobic exercise capacity. Short tandem repeat (STR) polymorphisms have been used as genetic markers in the literature...
