Lipoprotein and apolipoprotein concentrations were determined in 11 homozygous and 9 heterozygous subjects for familial apolipoprotein C-II (Apo C-II) deficiency. Apo C-II was not detectable in the homozygotes, with the exception of 1 subject who possessed immunochemically detectable quantities in one of two samples. Apolipoproteins C-III (Apo C-III) and E (Apo E) were elevated 2-3.
