Zinc Finger Protein 202, genetic variation, and HDL cholesterol in the general population.

Abstract excerpt

Zinc Finger Protein 202 (ZNF202) is a transcriptional repressor that binds elements found predominantly in genes involved in HDL metabolism. We tested the following hypotheses: 1) frequencies of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes in ZNF202 differ between individuals with low and high HDL cholesterol; and 2) SNPs in ZNF202 affect HDL cholesterol levels in the general population. We screened the...
