Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Hexokinase, a key enzyme in glycolysis, has isoforms like HK-1, HK-2, HK-3, and Glucokinase. Unpublished exome sequencing data showed that two novel polymorphisms in HK-1 rs201626997 (G/T) and HK-3 rs143604141 (G/A) exist in the Bangladeshi population. We investigated the possible relationship of these SNPs with T2DM. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Peripheral blood samples from the study participants were...
