Abstract excerpt
In a sample taken from the genetically isolated Alberta Hutterites, we previously found that PON1 variation was associated with variation in plasma lipoprotein traits, including LDL and HDL cholesterol. With the recent cloning of the PON1-related gene PON2, we undertook studies of the association...
