The mouse apolipoprotein E gene was isolated from a genomic library by screening with a cDNA probe. DNA including apolipoprotein E gene plus segments 2.5 kilobases upstream and 0.3 kilobase downstream of the coding region was transfected into NIH3T3 cells. The cells expressed the same-size apolipoprotein E mRNA and protein as those produced by mouse endogenously. The nucleotide sequence of the gene plus 5' and 3' flanking regions (one kilobase each) was determined. The sequence of the mouse apoliprotein E gene was highly homologous to that of the rat gene, not only in the coding regions but also in the non-coding and intron regions. The mouse and the human apolipoprotein E genes were homologous in the 5' proximal flanking region up to about 200 nucleotides as well as in the four exons. This proximal region was highly conserved for the genes of mouse, rat and human; the relative positions of the "TATA box" and the two copies of "GC box" were identical.
