Frameshift coding sequence variants in the LPL gene: identification of two novel events and exploration of the genotype–phenotype relationship for variants reported to date

Abstract Background Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is the rate-limiting enzyme for triglyceride hydrolysis. Homozygous or compound heterozygous LPL variants cause autosomal recessive familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS), whereas simple heterozygous LPL variants are associated with hypertriglyceridemia...
