Notes

Mapping and Phenotype information for this QTL, its variants and associated markers

J:14189

Using MAPMAKER/QTL, mice from a backcross involving (C57BL/6J x Mus spretus)F1 x C57BL/6J were analyzed to identify quantitative trait loci that effect plasma cholesterol levels. A locus controlling plasma total cholesterol levels (Chol1, cholesterol 1) mapped on distal mouse Chromosome 7 and exhibited a peak LOD score of 5.8 with D7Ucla1.
