Abstract excerpt
We examined the apolipoprotein E polymorphism of an obese patient presenting non-insulin-dependent diabetes, hypertension and moderate lipid disturbances. The apolipoprotein E genotyping carried out from leukocyte DNA using PCR amplification and restriction enzyme digestion demonstrated homozygosity for the rare apoE1[Gly127-->Asp; Arg158--> Cys] (Weisgraber allele). The nucleotide change results in a glycine to...
