Donor splice site mutation in the apolipoprotein (Apo) C-II gene (Apo C-IIHamburg) of a patient with Apo C-II deficiency.
The DNA, RNA, and protein of apo C-II have been analyzed in a patient with apo C-II deficiency (apo C-IIHamburg). Markedly reduced levels of plasma and intrahepatic C-II apolipoprotein were demonstrated by immunoblotting and immunohistochemical analysis. Northern, slot blot, and in situ hybridization studies revealed low levels of a normal-sized apo C-II mRNA. No major rearrangement of the apo ...
متن کاملApo A-i and Apo E Interaction: beyond Lipoproteins
Apolipoproteins (Apo) A-I, A-II, A-IV, and E possess repeated amphipathic helical regions with the same genomic structure and are members of a multigene family that probably evolved from a common ancestral gene [1]. These apolipoproteins play pivotal roles in lipid transport and lipoprotein metabolism, and their carboxyl-terminal domain is critical for lipid binding [2]. The purpose of this com...

We analyzed the genetic defect in a 67-year-old Japanese male patient with apolipoprotein (apo) A-I and high density lipoprotein (HDL) deficiencies, corneal opacities, and coronary artery disease. The plasma concentrations of apoA-I and HDL cholesterol were 2.9 to 7.3 mg/dL and 0.08 to 0.19 mmol/L, respectively. The lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity and cholesterol esterifica...
متن کاملDevelopmental and pharmacological regulation of apolipoprotein C-II gene expression. Comparison with apo C-I and apo C-III gene regulation.
Increased plasma triglyceride concentrations are often observed in metabolic disorders predisposing to coronary heart disease. Among the major determinants of plasma triglyceride metabolism are the apolipoproteins (apos) of the C class, C-I, C-II, and C-III. Whereas physiological concentrations of apo C-II are required for lipolysis of triglycerides by lipoprotein lipase (LPL), overexpression o...
متن کاملApo B/apo A-I ratio and cardiovascular risk prediction.
Apolipoproteins are proteins associated with lipids in lipoprotein particles. They play important roles in lipoprotein metabolism, such as transport of these hydrophobic molecules in plasma aqueous medium, binding to specific receptors in cell surface to correctly direct lipids to target organs and body tissues, and activation or inhibition of enzymes involved in lipid metabolism. Apolipoprotei...
