A functional mutation at position -155 in porcine APOE promoter affects gene expression.

BMC genetics | 2011

Apolipoprotein E, a component of the plasma lipoproteins, plays an important role in the transport and metabolism of cholesterol and other lipids. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) -491A>T, -219T>G and +113G>C in the regulatory region of human apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) change the promoter activity and are associated with a wide variety of disorders including Alzheimer disease (AD). Functional SNPs in porcine APOE gene 5' regulatory region have not been explored.
