Denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography in the detection of ABCA1 gene mutations in familial HDL deficiency.

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the ABCA1 gene are the cause of familial high density lipoprotein deficiency (FHD). Because these mutations are spread over the entire gene, their detection requires the sequencing of all 50 exons. The aim of this study was to validate denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) in mutation detection as an alternative to systematic sequencing. Exons of the ABCA1 gene were amplified...
