Novel Rheumatoid Arthritis Susceptibility Locus at 22q12 Identified in an Extended UK Genome‐Wide Association Study
AssociationN=8,305Gisela Orozco et al.(2014)· Arthritis & Rheumatology

This extended UK genome-wide association study identified a novel rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility locus at 22q12 (rs1043099, P = 6.9 × 10⁻⁹, OR = 0.84) in 3,034 cases and 5,271 controls, and confirmed 16 previously known RA loci, strengthening evidence for genetic contributors to RA in the UK population.

Traits studied:Rheumatoid arthritis

About CASTOR1

Enables several functions, including arginine binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and protein sequestering activity. Involved in cellular response to L-arginine; cellular response to amino acid starvation; and regulation of TORC1 signaling. Located in GATOR2 complex and cytosol.
