Novel haptoglobin insertion/deletion polymorphism is associated with the lipid profile and C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration.

Abstract excerpt

We discovered a hitherto undescribed insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of 7 base pairs in intron 4 of the HP1 allele and intron 4 and 6 of the HP2 allele. Genotyping was performed in 311 Belgian subjects. The association between serum haptoglobin (Hp) and lipid concentrations and the Hp I/D genotypes was investigated. Genotype distribution in 103 Hp 1-1 phenotypes (50.5% DD, 39.8% DI, 9.7% II) and D allele...
