Association of exome sequences with plasma C-reactive protein levels in >9000 participants.

Association of exome sequences with plasma C-reactive protein levels in >9000 participants.

C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration is a heritable systemic marker of inflammation that is associated with cardiovascular disease risk. Genome-wide association studies have identified CRP-associated common variants associated in ∼25 genes. Our aims were to apply exome sequencing to (1) assess whe...
