Structure, function, and genetics of lipoprotein (a).

Journal of lipid research - 1 Aug 2016

Schmidt Konrad, Noureen Asma, Kronenberg Florian, Utermann Gerd

Abstract excerpt

Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] has attracted the interest of researchers and physicians due to its intriguing properties, including an intragenic multiallelic copy number variation in the LPA gene and the strong association with coronary heart disease (CHD). This review summarizes present knowledge of the structure, function, and genetics of Lp(a) with emphasis on the molecular and population genetics of the Lp(a)/LPA...
