Abstract

Three common alleles of apolipoprotein E (apoE) have been identified and are expressed codominantly to generate six genotypes. Different apoE genotypes are implicated in several cardiovascular and neurologic disorders. Testing for apoE genotypes has increasing diagnostic importance, particularly in the risk assessment of coronary artery disease. A reproducible and cost-effective assay was developed.
