Partial lipodystrophy syndromes--a further male case.

abstract：:Genetic studies as well as in situ hybridisation data have strongly demonstrated that the genes coding for apoprotein(a) and plasminogen are linked and localised to chromosome 6 at band 6q26-27. We describe in this report the presence of a recombination event in a region of approximately 50 kb of DNA separating the tw...
