Pattern of gradient of apolipoprotein E allele *4 frequencies in western Europe.

Human biology - 1 Apr 1997

Lucotte G, Loirat F, Hazout S

Abstract excerpt

The apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) is located on chromosome 19. The three most common APOE alleles account for most of the corresponding peptide chain variations in most human populations. APOE*3 is the most common allele, coding for the product E3; APOE*2 codes for an Arg-158-->Cys substitution (E...
