title: Polymorphisms in the apolipoprotein AI-CIII gene complex.
abstract: We report the presence of five restriction fragment length polymorphisms in the apolipoprotein AI-CIII (apo AI-CIII) gene complex as well as their respective allelic frequencies in a German population (pi) that we studied: an SstI (BanII) polymorphism in the 3' non-coding region of apo CIII q1(pi) = 0.13); an MspI polymorphism in the third intron of apo AI (q2(pi) = 0.12); a PvuII polymorphism in the first intron of apo CIII (q3(pi) = 0.30); and two XmnI polymorphisms in the 5' side of apo AI (q4(pi) = 0.20 and q5(pi) = 0.05).
