Excess of rare variants in genes identified by genome-wide association study of hypertriglyceridemia
Abstract
Robert Hegele and colleagues report a genome-wide association study for hypertriglyceridemia, followed by resequencing of the coding regions of candidate genes. They identify an excess of rare variants in affected individuals at four genes within the associated loci.
