Abstract excerpt
A tandem 24-bp insertion in the apolipoprotein E (apo E) gene was detected in a patient with elevated triglyceride, apolipoprotein (apo) CII, and apo CIII levels. This novel variant, apo E5ss, showed in position apo E5 by isoelectric focusing and was of larger molecular weight than apo E3 during two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism analysis using...
