Abstract excerpt
In a patient with primary hyperchylomicronemia as a result of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency, we sequenced all translated exons and intron-exon boundaries of the LPL gene. We found a C-->A mutation in position -3 at the acceptor splice site of intron 6 which caused aberrant splicing. The major transcript showed a deletion of exons 6 through 9 and amounted to about 3% of the normal transcript of a healthy...
