Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A common genetic variant at the glutamate-ammonia ligase (GLUL) locus has been previously associated with an increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) as well as alterations of glutamic acid metabolism and the γ-glutamyl cycle in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Here we investigated whether less frequent variants in GLUL and 15 additional genes in these pathways are associated with...
