Abstract excerpt
Common variants of APOA5 have consistently shown association with differences in plasma triglyceride (TG) levels. These single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) fall into three common haplotypes: APOA5*1, with common alleles at all sites; APOA5*2, with rare alleles of -1131T--> C, -3A--> G, 751G--> T, and 1891T--> C; and APOA5*3, distinguished by the c56C--> G (S19W). Molecular modeling of the apoAV signal peptide...
