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 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 کاملA novel homozygous missense mutation in the apo A-I gene with apo A-I deficiency.
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 کاملA nonsense mutation in the apolipoprotein C-IIPadova gene in a patient with apolipoprotein C-II deficiency.
The apo C-II gene from a patient with apo C-II deficiency has been sequenced after amplification by the polymerase chain reaction. A substitution of an adenosine for a guanosine at position 3002 in exon 3 of the patient's gene was identified by sequence analysis. This mutation leads to the introduction of a premature termination codon (TAA) at a position corresponding to amino acid 37 of mature...
متن کاملInteraction of apo cytochrome c with sulfonated polystyrene nanoparticles.
Stable nanoparticle dispersion in aqueous solutions was obtained with partially sulfonated polystyrene. The hydrophobic association of the backbone chains and phenyl groups is balanced by the electrostatic repulsion of the sulfonate groups on the particle surface. The size distribution of the sulfonated polystyrene particles in relation to concentration, degree of sulfonation and chain length, ...
