Abstract excerpt
Resolving the underlying functional mechanism to a given genetic association has proven extremely challenging. However, the strongest associated type 2 diabetes (T2D) locus reported to date, TCF7L2, presents an opportunity for translational analyses, as many studies in multiple ethnicities strongly point to SNP rs7903146 in intron 3 as being the causal variant within this gene. We carried out oligo pull-down...
