Abstract:
:Genetic polymorphisms of apolipoprotein A-IV (apoA-IV) have been detected by isoelectric focusing of serum proteins. Because genetic variation in apoA-IV has significant effects on lipid risk factors, we used restriction enzyme isoform genotyping (restriction isotyping) to determine apoA-IV isoform genotypes at the DNA level for a large population (n = 509). In contrast to isoelectric focusing methods, restriction isotyping relies on nucleotide differences, enabling unambiguous typing of known isoforms and detection of new alleles that mimic other isoforms with shared charge properties. To determine genotypes for the common A-IV-1 isoform (Gln at aa position 360) and A-IV-2 isoform (360His), we used a mismatched primer for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to introduce a restriction site (PvuII) that distinguishes each isoform. Using a portion of the same PCR reaction, we used HinfI to distinguish isoforms with Thr at position 347 (347Thr) versus Ser (347Ser). In surveys for these common genotypes, we detected heterozygotes for an allele with an insertion of 12 bp. Nucleotide sequencing showed that this allele is identical to the A-IV-0 isoform that inserts a hydrophilic repeat (Glu Gln Gln Gln) in a conserved region near the carboxy terminus. In addition, we discovered a new allele with a 12 bp deletion that removes a repeat (Glu Gln Gln Gln) from the same region. Nucleotide sequencing showed that this allele removes an acidic charge relative to A-IV-1, so we have named this isoform A-IV-2*. This isoform has not been discovered at the protein level, perhaps due to shared charge properties with A-IV-2 isoforms.
