Variant-to-function analysis of the childhood obesity chr12q13 locus implicates rs7132908 as a causal variant within the 3’ UTR of <i>FAIM2</i>

Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> The ch12q13 obesity locus is among the most significant childhood obesity loci identified in genome-wide association studies. This locus resides in a non-coding region within FAIM2 ; thus, the underlying causal variant(s) presumably influence disease susceptibility via an influence on cis -regulation within the genomic region. We implicated rs7132908 as a putative causal variant at this locus l...
