Sequence variation within the KIV-2 copy number polymorphism of the human LPA gene in African, Asian, and European populations.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2015

Abstract excerpt

Amazingly little sequence variation is reported for the kringle IV 2 copy number variation (KIV 2 CNV) in the human LPA gene. Apart from whole genome sequencing projects, this region has only been analyzed in some detail in samples of European populations. We have performed a systematic resequencing study of the exonic and flanking intron regions within the KIV 2 CNV in 90 alleles from Asian, European, and four...
