The V279F polymorphism might change protein character and immunogenicity in Lp-PLA2 protein
Background: Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) plays a strong role in the occurrence of certain cardiovascular disease processes. Polymorphisms at the protein level are also estimated to correlate with increased risk factors for heart attacks. One such polymorphism is the V279F polymo...
