BACKGROUND
α/β-hydrolase domain-containing protein 5 (ABHD5) plays an important role in the triacylglycerols (TAG) hydrolysis. Indeed, ABHD5 is the co-activator of adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), that catalyses the initial step of TAG hydrolysis. Mutations in ABHD5 gene are associated with the
Human plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a 476-residue hydrophobic glycoprotein that catalyzes the heterotransfer of cholesteryl esters and triacylglycerols among lipoproteins: Mutations in the CETP gene have been identified, mostly in the Japanese population. These mutations result
