Name

HCHOLA4 Gene

hypercholesterolemia, autosomal dominant 4

OPHLC Gene

Omphalocele due to duplication of 1p31.3

PSHK2 Gene

Pseudohyperkalemia, familial, 2, due to red cell leak

SM2 Gene

Hepatic fibrosis susceptibility due to Schistosoma mansoni infection

HDLCQ6 Gene

High density lipoprotein cholesterol level QTL 6

HDLCQ1 Gene

high density lipoprotein cholesterol level QTL 1

CLQTL1 Gene

cholesterol-lowering factor

CLQTL2 Gene

Cholesterol level QTL 2

NCEH1 Gene

neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase 1

Predicted to enable serine hydrolase activity. Predicted to be involved in ether lipid metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein dephosphorylation and xenobiotic metabolic process. Located in membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

LIPA Gene

lipase A, lysosomal acid, cholesterol esterase

This gene encodes lipase A, the lysosomal acid lipase (also known as cholesterol ester hydrolase). This enzyme functions in the lysosome to catalyze the hydrolysis of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides. Mutations in this gene can result in Wolman disease and cholesteryl ester storage disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

LCAT Gene

lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase

This gene encodes the extracellular cholesterol esterifying enzyme, lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase. The esterification of cholesterol is required for cholesterol transport. Mutations in this gene have been found to cause fish-eye disease as well as LCAT deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

HDLCQ4 Gene

High density lipoprotein cholesterol level QTL 4

HDLCQ5 Gene

High density lipoprotein cholesterol level QTL 5

HDLCQ2 Gene

High density lipoprotein cholesterol level QTL on chromosome 8

HDLC3 Gene

High density lipoprotein cholesterol, low serum, 3

CHROMR Gene

cholesterol induced regulator of metabolism RNA
