How APOE genotype scores are distributed among the subjects?
And what does APOE A1 and APOE A2 means?
APOE is polymorphic with three major alleles (e2, e3, and e4).
APOE has 6 genotypes (e2e2, e2e3, e2e4, e3e3, e3e4, and e4e4).
Thank you for your quick reply. I know that APOE has 6 genotypes but I want to know what do you mean by APOE A1 and APOE A2, how does it is calculated. As you can see in Image Database: Advanced Search, there are two options for APOE (as APOE A1 and APOE A2) so I want to know how these values are calculated and What does 2, 3, or 4 means (is it a genotype combination).
APOE A1 and A2 mean allele 1 and allele 2 of the APOE genotype.
2=e2, 3=e3, and 4=e4.
