Abstract excerpt
Previously, a mutant apolipoprotein (apo) E, apolipoprotein E7 (Glu(244)-->Lys, Glu(245)--->Lys), has been identified in association with hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis. To investigate the effects of its structural changes on lipoprotein metabolisms and its correlation with atherosclerosis, we characterized this mutant apoE with respect to its receptor-binding, heparin-binding, and lipoprotein association.
