Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1): Consideration of Molecular Evolution, Interaction with APOL3, and Impact of Splice Isoforms Advances Understanding of Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms o... by Razi Khalaila, Karl Skorecki

“…In the absence of a consistent mechanistic explanation for differential kidney injury, we propose pursuing three interrelated avenues of investigation informed by prior epidemiological and mechanistic evidence linking them to APOL1’s cytotoxicity: (1) Molecular evolution of APOL1 haplotypes in human populations, (2) APOL1 splicing and consequent splice isoforms, (3) Interaction of APOL1 with other APOL gene family members, prioritizing APOL3. In the current study, we use reanalysis of population genetics datasets to resolve the haplotype contexts of all protein-altering APOL1 variants, uncovering previously unrecognized variant–haplotype couplings. …”
