PCSK9 and myocardial infarction: An example novel result showing a very unique divergence from previously reported associations was for the SNP rs11206510 (coded allele T) near the gene PCSK9. This SNP has been previously associated with coronary heart disease [24], LDL-C [16], [17], [25], and myocardial infarction [26] in European-descent populations, but we did not replicate any of those previously reported associations.
