Abstract excerpt
Estimates of the impact of apolipoprotein E (apo E) alleles coding for the three common isoforms on plasma lipid levels assume genetic homogeneity among the genotype classes. To test this assumption, we have determined the apo E genotype at the two common polymorphic sites (amino acids 112 and 158) by DNA amplification and hybridisation with allele-specific oligoprobes, in 195 unrelated Caucasian participants of...
