## Abstract Distributions of alleles at three apolipoprotein loci (APO E, APO H, and APO AโIV) and an insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism at the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) locus among 274 American Samoans are described here. Genotypes at each locus are examined for associations with quan
Genetic studies carried out mainly in European and European-derived populations have shown that common polymorphisms in genes coding for apolipoproteins are significant determinants of serum lipoprotein-lipid levels variation. However, except for a few sporadic studies, the distribution of apolipopr
The apolipoprotein H (APO H) polymorphism was analyzed in the Negroid population from the Ivory Coast using polyacrylamide gel isoelectric focusing, followed by immunoblotting. The gene frequencies of alleles APO H\*l, APO H\*2, APO H\*3 and APO H\*4 were calculated to be 0.012,0.921,0.047 and 0.020
