Characterization of the sheep apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene and allelic variations of the ApoE gene in scrapie Suffolk sheep.

Gene - 27 Feb 1998

Abstract excerpt

Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) plays a central role in lipid transport and is suggested to be involved in neuronal repair. Human ApoE epsilon 4 allele is known as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, and an association of the human ApoE genotype with the human prion disease, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, is suggested, albeit controversial. We analyzed the sheep ApoE gene to determine whether any association between the...
