Abstract

In this report, methodical bases for the molecular genetic analysis of the three common apolipoprotein E alleles APOE*2, APOE*3 and APOE*4 in DNA isolated from ancient human skeletal remains are described. Considering that ancient DNA target regions for amplification are generally quite small, the detection method is based on short amplification products in the range from 71 bp to 75 bp. The applicability of the modified method for APOE genotyping was examined in modern human DNA samples.
