Notes

rs267606655, also known as c.50_51delCCinsGA and p.Ser17Ter, represents a rare loss of function variant in the ANGPTL3 gene on chromosome 1. As a loss of function variant, the minor allele leads to lower amounts of ANGPTL3 protein, lowered triglycerides and LDL cholesterol, and according to several studies, a lowered risk (by about 40%) of developing coronary artery disease. These studies are discussed on the ANGPTL3 page.
