Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Most reported mutations that affect lipoprotein metabolism are found within the coding sequences of genes. Recently, a few mutations that occur within promoter sequences have been detected. These promoter sequence variants are the topic of the present review. METHODS: Some of these variants are fairly common genomic variants in the promoter regions for candidate genes in lipoprotein metabolism, such as...
