Hyperkeratosis lenticularis perstans
0.030 GeneticVariation BEFREE Although most subjects with type III HLP are homozygous for apolipoprotein (apo) E2 (arg158-->cys, R158C), a variant that binds defectively to cell surface receptors, some individuals with type III HLP have rare mutations of apo E. We identified six subjects from three families with type III HLP who had either an apo E3/1 or E4/1 phenotype by isoelectric focusing. 7883834 1995
