Lastly, in the catechol O-methyltransferase gene (COMT), rs4680 (Val158Met), (NG_011526.1:g.27009G>A; G to A base change, resulting in a change of the amino acid valine (Val) to a methionine (Met) in the protein, which results in reduced enzyme activity); it has been shown that the GG (ValVal) genotype, related to a greater enzyme activity [42], is associated with obesity and hypercholesterolemia [43,44]. The gene discussed is COMT; the disease is familial hypercholesterolemia.
