Abstract excerpt
We identified two apolipoprotein (apo) A-I variants, using isoelectric focusing gel electrophoresis: apo A-I Karatsu, which had a relative charge of +1 compared to normal apo A-I4, and apo A-I Kurume, which had a relative charge of -1. Direct sequence analysis of the PCR-amplified DNA from the proband of apo A-I Karatsu revealed a single substitution of tyrosine (TAC) for histidine (CAC) at position 100. Sequence...
