Genetics of the Lp lipoprotein in Japanese-Americans. 1985

N E Morton, and K Berg, and G Dahlen, and R E Ferrell, and G G Rhoads

Segregation analysis of four Lp assays on 557 children in 227 families reveals a dominant major gene and a residual heritable component that may reflect one or more alleles of weaker effect. Close or moderate linkage to esterase-D (ESD) is excluded.

D008074 Lipoproteins Lipid-protein complexes involved in the transportation and metabolism of lipids in the body. They are spherical particles consisting of a hydrophobic core of TRIGLYCERIDES and CHOLESTEROL ESTERS surrounded by a layer of hydrophilic free CHOLESTEROL; PHOSPHOLIPIDS; and APOLIPOPROTEINS. Lipoproteins are classified by their varying buoyant density and sizes. Circulating Lipoproteins,Lipoprotein,Lipoproteins, Circulating
