Abstract excerpt

The variability of the Class B Type I Scavenger Receptor (SR-BI) gene in human populations and the relation of its variants to blood lipids was investigated in a random sample of 1756 untreated adult residents of Geneva, Switzerland, during 1999-2000. A three-step study approach yielded the following results: (1) resequencing the gene's exons and flanking regions in 95 subjects identified four common single...
