Abstract excerpt
Variation in human apolipoprotein genes is a major source of phenotypic differences in human lipid metabolism. Data regarding genetic variation at apolipoprotein loci in various populations are only beginning to accumulate, and they suggest that different populations vary widely in distribution of apolipoprotein alleles. Using isoelectric focusing-immunoblotting techniques, we screened 67 serum samples from...
