| Primary Identifier | MGI:3703768 | Allele Type | QTL |
| Gene | Plast1 | Inheritance Mode | Codominant |
| Strain of Origin | C57BL/6J | Is Recombinase | false |
| Is Wild Type | false |
| description | Plast1 interacts with Plast2b on mouse Chromosome 2. Homozygosity for CASA/Rk-derived alleles at Plast2b in conjunction with at least 1 C57BL/6J-derived allele at Plast1 significantly decreases plasma campsterol-to-total cholesterol ratio. Plast1 also interacts with Plast3 (chromosome 5) and Plast4 (chromosome 7). |
| molecularNote | This allele confers increased plasma plant sterol concentrations compared to CASA/Rk. |
