I've had a line of increased density show up on the negative when working in bright conditions -- the film holder's film hold-down rail itself was quite shiny and reflected some additional light onto the edge of the sheet. Perfectly straight line, almost exactly matching in width, the depth of the face of the hold-down rail (which is 90 degrees to the surface of the film). The "fix" was some fine sandpaper to take the sheen off that surface. Poof! Problem went away.
If it's really a line of *less* density on the negative... IDK.
