Genetic Localization to Chromosome 1p32 of the Third Locus for Familial Hypercholesterolemia in a Utah Kindred
1 Apr 2000
Abstract excerpt
Clinical familial hypercholesterolemia has been shown to result from mutations in 2 genes, the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor on chromosome 19 and apolipoprotein B on chromosome 2. However, we have recently described a Utah pedigree in which linkage to both genes was clearly excluded. A multipoint linkage analysis of 583 markers genotyped on 31 (18 affected) members of this pedigree was undertaken to...
