Abstract excerpt
The cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene has been implicated in the variation of HDL levels but most studies have focused on only one or a few genetic variations. In order to properly understand the role of CETP in determining phenotype, it is necessary to examine the entire gene and all its common polymorphisms. The coding regions, adjacent introns, and proximal 5' and 3' regions were resequenced from...
