A227_E230del (A209_E212del)
|
Blood Lipids/Lipoproteins, Cardiovascular Disease, Hyperlipoproteinemia Type III | Deletion | Deletion | Frame Shift | Coding | Exon 4 | Predicted to cause a frameshift introducing a stop codon at amino acid 247. In homozygous form, resulted in near elimination of ApoE protein. |
