Genetic structure of five susceptibility gene regions for coronary artery disease: disequilibria within and among regions.

Human genetics - 1 Sept 1998

Abstract excerpt

We analyzed two-locus disequilibria for 16 polymorphic loci of seven susceptibility genes for coronary artery disease located in five chromosomal regions distributed across four chromosomes. Included were the genes coding for apolipoprotein B (ApoB, chromosome 2, four marker loci), lipoprotein li...
