Counting copy number and calories.

Nature genetics - 1 Aug 2015

White Stefan

Abstract excerpt

Copy number variation (CNV) at several genomic loci has been associated with different human traits and diseases, but in many cases the findings could not be replicated. A new study provides insights into the degree of variation present at the amylase locus and calls into question a previous asso...
