Abstract excerpt
The molecular defect in a 24-year-old white female with severe type III hyperlipoproteinemia has been elucidated. The patient's apolipoprotein (apo) E migrated in the apoE-4 position on isoelectric focusing gels. On sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis the apoE-4 variant had...
