Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified hundreds of loci for body mass index (BMI), but functional variants in these loci are less known. The purpose of this study was to identify RNA modification-related SNPs (RNAm-SNPs) for BMI in GWAS loci. BMI-associated RNAm-SNPs were identified in a GWAS of approximately 700,000 individuals. Gene expression and circulating protein levels affected...
