Abstract excerpt

In order to determine the prevalence of major rearrangements of the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor gene in Finland, DNA samples of 199 unrelated Finnish patients with the heterozygous form of familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) were examined by Southern blot analysis. The FH-Helsinki muta...
