Mutations of the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor in 16 Japanese kindreds with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) were studied using an anti-LDL receptor antibody. The LDL receptor mutations in Japanese FH were heterogeneous and included defects in synthesis, post-translational proc
Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) was used in combination with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect sequence variations in the promoter region of the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene. On the basis of calculated predictive melting properties we designed primers to am
Elevated blood plasma cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD) in humans. Genetic dissection of polygenic lipid and lipoprotein disorders in swine, a key animal model for the study of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and CAD, led to the isolation
