Human apolipoprotein A-IV (apo A-IV) exhibits a genetic polymorphism with two common alleles, A-IV1 and A-IV2, in Caucasian populations. We have investigated this polymorphism in the Icelandic population. The frequencies of the two alleles are significantly different from middel European populations with a higher frequency of the A-IV2 allele (0.117 versus 0.077) occurring in Iceland. The alleles at the apo A-IV...
