Abstract excerpt
Cardiometabolic disease affects the majority of individuals worldwide. The metabolite α-aminoadipic acid (2-AAA) was identified as a biomarker of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). However, the mechanisms underlying this association remain unknown. DHTKD1, a central gene in the 2-AAA pathway, has been linked to 2-AAA levels and metabolic phenotypes. However, relatively little is known about its function. Here we report that...
