Abstract excerpt
A PST1 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), located close to the apolipoprotein AI (apo-AI) gene on chromosome 11, is associated with elevated levels of apo-AI in normal healthy individuals and with depressed levels in patients with coronary heart disease. In both cases the association is with the P2 allele (the allele not containing the PST1 cutting site). Prolonged exercise is known to increase...
