Abstract excerpt

Xba I and EcoR I polymorphism of the apolipoprotein B (APOB) gene was studied by PCR. A significant increase in the frequency of allele X+ and haplotype H+E+ was demonstrated in patients with coronarographically documented coronary heart disease (CHD) over that of the general population.
