Low density lipoprotein cholesterol level quantitative trait locus 3(LDLCQ3)

MedGen UID:
854805
•Concept ID:
C3888197
•
Finding
Synonym: LDLCQ3
 
Gene (location): HMGCR (5q13.3)
 
OMIM®: 620410

Definition

Low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level quantitative trait locus 3 (LDLCQ3) represents regulation of LDL cholesterol by 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase (HMGCR), the rate-limiting enzyme in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway. HMGCR is inhibited by statins, a class of cholesterol-lowering drugs whose efficacy is influenced by variation in the HMGCR gene (summary by Yu et al., 2014). [from OMIM]
