In a kindred with three hyperlipidemic subjects who had premature atherosclerosis and complete deficiency of hepatic lipase activity, we had previously identified a novel structural hepatic lipase gene variant. We now report the identification of three more hepatic lipase gene mutations in this family and demonstrate that compound heterozygosity for two hepatic lipase mutations (designated S267F and T383M) underlies hepatic lipase deficiency.
