▶Use of longitudinal data in genetic studies in the genome‐wide association studies era: summary of Group 14ReviewN=14,658Kerner B. et al.(2009)· Genetic Epidemiology
This is a summary of Group 14 analyses from the Genetic Analysis Workshop 16 (GAW16) demonstrating the use of longitudinal data from the Framingham Heart Study in genome-wide association studies. Multiple analytical approaches were compared for identifying genetic associations with metabolic and cardiovascular traits including BMI, type 2 diabetes, blood pressure, lipid levels, and coronary heart disease, using various statistical methods such as linear mixed models, growth mixture modeling, and generalized estimating equations.
About CETP
The protein encoded by this gene is found in plasma, where it is involved in the transfer of cholesteryl ester from high density lipoprotein (HDL) to other lipoproteins. Defects in this gene are a cause of hyperalphalipoproteinemia 1 (HALP1). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2013]
