Notes

rs116843064, also known as c.118G>A, p.Glu40Lys and E40K, represents a low frequency (~3%) variant in the ANGPTL4 gene on chromosome 19. Studies about the effect of the E40K minor allele, rs116843064(A), are mixed: * In 2007, it was reported to be associated with lower plasma triglyceride levels and higher high density lipoprotein (HDL) * In 2009, though reported to be associated with low (therefore "good") triglyceride levels, it appeared actually increase risk of coronary heart disease by ~50% * In 2016, it was reported to be associated with lslightly lower risk for coronary artery disease (odds ratio 0.86)
