Genome-wide association scan for stature in Chinese: evidence for ethnic specific loci
AssociationN=3,571Shu-Feng Lei et al.(2009)· Human Genetics

Genome-wide association study in 618 Northern Chinese and replication in 2,953 Southern Chinese identified 13 contiguous SNPs in the ZNF510/ZNF782 region significantly associated with stature (P = 9.71×10^-5 to 3.11×10^-6, FDR q = 0.036-0.046). The most significant SNP rs10816533 replicated in Southern Chinese (P = 0.029, combined P = 1.55×10^-6), suggesting this is an ethnic-specific locus for height variation in Chinese populations.

About PLAG1

Pleomorphic adenoma gene 1 encodes a zinc finger protein with 2 putative nuclear localization signals. PLAG1, which is developmentally regulated, has been shown to be consistently rearranged in pleomorphic adenomas of the salivary glands. PLAG1 is activated by the reciprocal chromosomal translocations involving 8q12 in a subset of salivary gland pleomorphic adenomas. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
