Abstract
⺠HP CNV/HPR SNP haplotype analysis shows association of HP CNV with Hb levels/RCC. ⺠HP CNV/HPR SNP haplotype analysis shows association of HPR SNP with LDL-C/TC. ⺠The HP CNV/Hb-related association may be via Hp2 allele advantage in malaria zones. ⺠The HPR SNP/cholesterol association is likely via apolipoproteins in TLF-1 and -2. ⺠We infer that HP CNV duplication preceded HPR SNP mutation.
