Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is caused by mutations in the LDL receptor (LDLR) gene. We report the application of a universal method with high allele discrimination properties to the simultaneous genotyping of 7 LDLR mutations in Greeks, in dry-reagent format. DESIGN AND METHODS: We genotyped mutations C858A, C939A, G1285A, T1352C, G1646A, G1775A, C/T81G. Unpurified amplicons from a multiplex...
