Abstract

V originále

gt;= 70%) between the two Alu repeats in which the break occurred. Conclusions The most common rearrangements of the LDLR gene in the Czech population likely arose from one mutational event. Alu elements likely played a role in the generation of the majority of rearrangements inside the LDLR gene.
