rs137854494 in ABCA1 gene and Tangier Disease PMID 11476961 2001 Homogeneous assay based on 52 primer sets to scan for mutations of the ABCA1 gene and its application in genetic analysis of a new patient with familial high-density lipoprotein deficiency syndrome.

PMID 14754908 2004 Analysis of apoE3-containing particles generated during the incubation of lipid-free apoE3 with stimulated normal cells showed nascent apoE3/cholesterol/phospholipid complexes that exhibited prebeta-electrophoretic mobility with a particle size ranging from 9 to 15 nm, whereas lipid-free apoE3 incubated with ABCA1 mutant (C1477R) cells was unable to form such particles.These results demonstrate that 1). apoE association with lipids reduced its ability to interact with ABCA1; 2). apoE isoforms did not affect apoE binding to ABCA1; 3). apoE-mediated ABCA1-dependent cholesterol efflux was not affected by apoE isoforms in fibroblasts; and 4). the lipid translocase activity of ABCA1 generates apoE-containing high density-sized lipoprotein particles.
