Genetic studies of human apolipoproteins. XVI. APOE polymorphism and cholesterol levels in the Mayans of the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico.

Clinical genetics - 1 Jan 1991

Kamboh M I, Weiss K M, Ferrell R E

Abstract excerpt

Structural variation at the APOE locus is a major determinant of interindividual differences in cholesterol levels in populations at large. We have determined APOE structural polymorphism and estimated its impact on total cholesterol in the Mayans of the Yucatan Peninsula from Mexico. A unique pattern of APOE allele frequency distribution was observed, with no example of the APOE*2 allele and a relatively low...
