Transgelin: a new gene involved in LDL endocytosis identified by a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screen

A significant proportion of patients with elevated LDL and a clinical presentation of familial hypercholesterolemia do not carry known genetic mutations associated with hypercholesterolemia, such as defects in the LDL receptor. To identify new genes involved in the cellular uptake of LDL, we develop...
