title: A new restriction-site polymorphism in exon 18 of the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene.
abstract: A new restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) in exon 18 of the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene is described. It should be a useful marker in linkage to familial hypercholesterolemia.
