Abstract excerpt
Previous studies from this laboratory characterized the hypercholesterolemia of pigs with a mutant allele of apolipoprotein B (apoB), designated Lpb5. This apoB allele is associated with low density lipoprotein (LDL) particles deficient in binding to the LDL receptor. To identify potential causative mutations in Lpb5 DNA, 10.6 kb of genomic DNA, encoding the carboxyl-terminal 58% of apoB were sequenced from the...
