Abstract excerpt

A DNA restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), observed with the XbaI restriction enzyme digestion of peripheral lymphocyte genomic DNA and a 3.5 kb probe 3' end of the apolipoprotein B gene, was investigated in 228 normal healthy males. Lipoprotein measurements were conducted on fasting...
