GWAS for serum galactose-deficient IgA1 implicates critical genes of the <i>O</i> -glycosylation pathway
2016-09-21
Abstract excerpt
Aberrant O -glycosylation of serum immunoglobulin A1 (IgA1) represents a heritable pathogenic defect in IgA nephropathy, the most common form of glomerulonephritis worldwide, but specific genetic factors involved in its determination are not known. We performed a quantitative GWAS for serum levels of galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) in 2,633 subjects of European and East Asian ancestry and discovered two genome...
