Also known as: rs429358, rs7412

Comments: The APOE-ε4 allele is a combination of two SNPs on exon 4, rs429358 (C) and rs7412 (C). The ε4 allele may be a genetic risk factor for the development of LVF in homozygous β-thalassemia.

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
