Abstract

We have been able to amplify the lysine binding pocket region of human apo(a) kringle type 5 starting from the DNA isolated from peripheral blood lymphocytes. This development now permits the identification of Lp(a) mutants that by lacking their ability to bind to lysine/fibrin would have a lesser thrombogenic potential.
