Abstract excerpt
During the screening of apolipoprotein (apo) E gene polymorphism with PCR and subsequent restriction analysis, we have identified a female carrier with a mutant allele Arg136-->Cys. This proband had normal lipid parameters and no history of coronary artery disease (CAD). We did not confirm the previously described connection between apo E Arg136-->Cys mutation and elevated lipid levels. In the case of this...
