Notes

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

J:208464

Linkage analysis was performed on 309 (172 males; 137 females) (129S6/SvEvTac-Apoe^tm4Mae x D2.129P2(B6)-Apoe^tm1Unc/J)F2 intercross mice using 170 SNP markers to identify QTL associated with total plasma cholesterol level.

QTL Pcho2 maps to 29-57 Mb (15-31 cM) on Chromosome 9 with a peak LOD score of 8.6 at 37 Mb (21 cM) in linkage with total plasma cholesterol level. 129S6/SvEvTac-Apoe alleles confer increased total plasma cholesterol level.
