Gene-level analysis of rare variants in 363,977 whole exome sequences identifies an association of <i>GIGYF1</i> loss of function with type 2 diabetes
2021-01-25
Abstract excerpt
Sequencing of large cohorts offers an unprecedented opportunity to identify rare genetic variants and to find novel contributors to human disease. We used gene-based collapsing tests to identify genes associated with glucose, HbA1c and type 2 diabetes (T2D) diagnosis in 363,977 exome-sequenced participants in the UK Biobank. We identified associations for variants in GCK, HNF1A and PDX1 , which are known to be i...
