We conducted a genome-wide linkage scan for quantitative trait loci influencing total HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration in a sample of 1027 whites from 101 families participating in the NHLBI Family Heart Study. To maximize the relative contribution of genetic components of variance to the total variance of HDL-C, the HDL-C phenotype was adjusted for age, age(2), body mass index, and Family Heart Study field center, and standardized HDL-C residuals were created separately for men and women. All analyses were completed by the variance components method, as implemented in the program GENEHUNTER using 383 anonymous markers typed at the NHLBI Mammalian Genotyping Service in Marshfield, Wis. Evidence for linkage of residual HDL-C was detected near marker D5S1470 at location 39.9 cM from the p-terminal of chromosome 5 (LOD=3.64). Suggestive linkage was detected near marker D13S1493 at location 27.5 cM on chromosome 13 (LOD=2.36). We conclude that at least 1 genomic region is likely to harbor a gene that influences interindividual variation in HDL cholesterol.
