Abstract excerpt

Mammalian physiological processes can distinguish between dietary cholesterol and non-cholesterol, retaining very little of the non-cholesterol in their bodies. We have recently identified two genes, ABCG5 and ABCG8, encoding sterolin-1 and -2 respectively, mutations of which cause the human disease sitosterolemia. We report here the mouse cDNAs and genomic organization of Abcg5 and Abcg8. Both genes are arranged...
