Rapid sizing of microsatellite alleles by gel electrophoresis on microfabricated channels: application to the D19S394 tetranucleotide repeat for cosegregation study of familial hypercholesterolemia.

Abstract excerpt

This study evaluated the applicability of microchip electrophoresis to the sizing of microsatellites suitable to genetic, clinical and forensic applications. The evaluation was performed with the D19S394 tetranucleotide (AAAG) repeat characterized by a wide variation in the repeat number (1-17) and a short recombination distance from the low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-receptor gene that makes it suitable to...
