Description

The LPA gene, previously called LP, is located on chromosome 6 and encodes the apolipoprotein(a) portion of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]. Several variants in the LPA gene have been associated with increased levels of Lp(a) as well as increased risk of cardiovascular disease. One of these variants is c.5673A>G (rs3798220), which results in a change from isoleucine to methionine at position 4399 (p.Ile4399Met, also known previously as position 1891). Another variant is c.3947+467T>C (rs10455872), which is located in intron 25. PMID: 27605514 Source: Regenstrief LOINC
