Abstract

Sequencing of CETP in M[a]ori and Pacific peoples identified a common (MAF [~]2.4%-5.4%) population-specific missense variant (rs1597000001, CETP:c.530C>T p.Pro177Leu) that associates with higher HDL-C levels ([Formula] [95% CI 0.211; 0.260]) and lower LDL-C ([Formula] [95% CI -0.209; -0.058]). In a subsample of the study cohort (n = 11), heterozygous carriers of the population-specific variant had lower plasma CETP activity (P = 0.028). Our study identifies a population-specific missense variant in CETP which lowers CETP activity with an effect on HDL-C that is comparable to Mendelian CETP loss-of-function mutations.
