DNA polymorphisms of the apolipoprotein genes--their use in the investigation of the genetic component of hyperlipidaemia and atherosclerosis.

S E Humphries1.   

Abstract

DNA probes for all eight of the major apolipoprotein genes are now available. The chromosomal location, the basic structure and in many cases the nucleotide sequences of the normal genes are known. Common DNA polymorphisms of all of the genes have been detected. These have been been used in a number of ways to investigate rare inherited defects of the apolipoprotein genes, to study the potential involvement of different variants of the genes in the development of hyperlipidaemia in patients, and to investigate the contribution of common variation in these genes in the determination of serum lipid levels in the normal population.
