Dissecting an adiposity locus with an arsenal of genomics.

Genome biology - 7 Jun 2018

Lorenz Kim, Voight Benjamin F

Abstract excerpt

We discuss a recent study that has identified and validated the link between a type-2 diabetes (T2D) association and human adipose biology by means of KLF14 gene expression. In addition to being maternally imprinted, the contributed risk at this locus is greater in female carriers.
