Abstract excerpt
Apolipoprotein (apo) E-4Philadelphia is a double mutant of apoE in which residue 13 of the mature protein, glutamic acid (GAG), is replaced by lysine (AAG) and amino acid 145, arginine (CGT), is converted to cysteine (TGT). These mutations result in two restriction fragment length polymorphisms f...
