Variants in the <i>FTO</i> and <i>CDKAL1</i> loci have recessive effects on risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes respectively

2015-09-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Genome-wide association studies have identified hundreds of common genetic variants associated with obesity and Type 2 diabetes. These studies have focused on additive association tests. Identifying deviations from additivity may provide new biological insights and explain some of the missing heritability for these diseases. To identify non-additive associations we performed a genome-wide associ...
