Abstract excerpt
The purpose of this paper is to report the linkage of a genetic locus (designated "HBM") in the human genome to a phenotype of very high spinal bone density, using a single extended pedigree. We measured spinal bone-mineral density, spinal Z(BMD), and collected blood from 22 members of this kindred. DNA was genotyped on an Applied Biosystems model 377 (ABI PRISM Linkage Mapping Sets; Perkin Elmer Applied...
