The aim of our study was to define mutations causing familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) phenotype in Czech hypercholesterolemic individuals. A combination of heteroduplex analysis, SSCP, DGGE, DNA sequencing and PCR/restriction analysis was used for this purpose. Molecular searching in the promoter
