✦ Synopsis
A locus, LP, that determines quantitative variation of Lp(a) lipoprotein phenotypes is linked to the plasminogen (PLG) locus (peak lod score = 12.73). This linkage relationship assigns a locus with alleles that have an affect on risk for coronary artery disease to the long arm of chromosome 6.

Since atherogenesis may begin in childhood, and elevated serum lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) concentrations increase cardiovascular risk, we explored the early expression of the apolipoprotein(a) (apo(a)) gene and relationships between infants' and parents' serum levels. In a consecutive series of 1032 bab
We have studied the segregation of the Lp(a) glycoprotein phenotypes and of the plasminogen (PLG) polymorphism in three two-generation families. The inheritance of the Lp(a) gene was followed using the Lp(a) glycoprotein size polymorphism and that of the plasminogen gene, using protein and DNA polym
In this paper I prove a L p &L p estimate for the solutions to the one-dimensional Schro dinger equation with a potential in L 1 # where in the generic case #>3Â2 and in the exceptional case (i.e., when there is a half-bound state of zero energy) #>5Â2. I use this estimate to construct the scatterin
