Abstract excerpt
Genetic studies in human populations and rodent models have identified regions of human chromosome 1q21-25 and rat chromosome 2 showing evidence of significant and replicated linkage to diabetes-related phenotypes. To investigate the relationship between the human and rat diabetes loci, we fine mapped the rat locus Nidd/gk2 linked to hyperinsulinemia in an F2 cross derived from the diabetic (type 2) Goto-Kakizaki...
