GeneReviews Familial Lipoprotein Lipase Deficiency

Lipoprotein lipase deficiency (also known as "chylomicronemia,",[1] "chylomicronemia syndrome"[2] and "hyperlipoproteinemia type Ia"[3]) is caused by a mutation in the gene which codes lipoprotein lipase.[1]:533. As a result, afflicted individuals lack the ability to produce lipoprotein lipase enzymes necessary for effective breakdown of fatty acids.
