Rationale for change

Amboss states this deficiency is caused by a mutated gene. A protein makes sense, but for completeness, updated to add "gene" to the end of the card.

Text Text
Extra
- Defect in the MTP gene; MTTP functions as a chaperone protein necessary for proper folding of apoB and helps transfer lipids to newly formed chylomicrons

- Normally, chylomicrons and VLDL particles are synthesized within the ER as lipids accumulate around a single apo B
