Robust methods were employed, using data from a single large pedigree, to screen serum apolipoprotein A1 and B levels, serum lipoprotein cholesterol levels, and ratios of serum lipoprotein cholesterol fractions to apolipoprotein A1 and B levels for genetic linkage to 31 polymorphic markers. Segregation analyses were performed for each of the apolipoprotein and lipoprotein cholesterol fractions to obtain estimates for use in applying likelihood methods of linkage analysis. Trait-marker combinations for which linkages were suggested from the robust methods were then reexamined for linkage using the likelihood (lod score) method. Results from the segregation analyses were consistent with major gene determination of apo B and HDL-C levels, the HDL-C to apo A1 ratio, the LDL-C to apo B ratio, and a measure of relative content of cholesterol in HDL-C and LDL-C. Linkage between haptoglobin and the HDL-C/apo A1 ratio was suggested, with a lod score of 1.72 at theta = 0.05.
