| Allelic Variant 1 |
107741.0015; APOE3 ISOFORM |
| Identified Mutation |
CYS112 AND ARG158; Weisgraber et al. [J. Biol. Chem. 256: 9077-9083 (1981)] and Rall et al. [Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 79: 4696-4700 (1982)] identified one of the 3 major apolipoprotein E isoforms, apolipoprotein E3. The variant has Cys112 and Arg158. This is the most common variant, with frequencies of 40% to 90% in various populations. |

107741.0016; APOE4 ISOFORM |
| Identified Mutation |
CYS112ARG; Weisgraber et al. [J. Biol. Chem. 256: 9077-9083 (1981)], Das et al. [J. Biol. Chem. 260: 6240-6247 (1985)] and Paik et al. [Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 82: 3445-3449 (1985)] identified the apolipoprotein E4 isoform in which there is a Cys112-to-Arg substitution. This variant is found in 6% to 37% of individuals from different populations. |
| Remarks |
The donor is a clinically affected member of a family with Alzheimer's disease. The donor had a history of progressive dementia. Donor's deceased mother was affected. The culture was initiated by transformation of lymphocytes with Epstein Barr virus. The cells grow in suspension and their morphology is spherical. The culture is a mosaic with karyotype: 45,X/46,XX; 10%/90%. The APOE genotype of the donor subject is E3/E4. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
