Deep coverage whole genome sequences and plasma lipoprotein(a) in individuals of European and African ancestries

Deep coverage whole genome sequences and plasma lipoprotein(a) in individuals of European and African ancestries

Circulating lipoprotein(a) is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease and shows variability between different ethnic groups. Here, Zekavat et al. perform whole-genome sequencing in individuals of European and African ancestries and find ancestry-specific genetic determinants for lipoprot...
