Association of the rs6235 variant in the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) gene with obesity and related traits in a Taiwanese population.

Gene - 1 Jan 2014

Hsiao Tun-Jen, Hwang Yuchi, Chang Hua-Mei, Lin Eugene

Abstract excerpt

One particularly interesting single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs6235 (encoding an S690T substitution), in the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) gene has been widely associated with obesity in several European cohorts. The present study was intended to investigate the association between the PCSK1 rs6235 SNP and the prevalence of overweight or obesity, or obesity-related metabolic traits...
