Abstract excerpt

In a genome-wide scan for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in African American (AA) families, ordered subsets analysis (OSA) provided evidence for linkage to chromosome 20p in a subset with later age at diagnosis (max LOD 2.57, P=0.008). The proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin-type 2 (PCSK2) gene is wit...
