Abstract
The Lp gene frequency is estimated to be 0.083 in Japanese, but with our method of assay the evidence favoring a major locus is marginal. The sinking pre‐β band is significantly associated with elevated cholesterol and depressed triglyceride. The biological significance of these observations is discussed.Keywords
