Abstract excerpt
The frequency of apolipoprotein E (apo E) phenotypes and genotypes due to allelic variation at amino acids 112 and 158 was analysed in 50 children with type I diabetes. Phenotypes were determined by isoelectric focusing and genotypes by the technique of polymerase chain reaction using allele-spec...
