Involvement of different risk factors in clinically severe large joint osteoarthritis according to the presence of hand interphalangeal nodes
Meta-analysisN=21,240Ana M. Valdes et al.(2010)· Arthritis &amp; Rheumatism

Genome-wide meta-analysis of minimal joint space width (cartilage thickness proxy) in 21,240 participants identified four novel loci for cartilage thickness and osteoarthritis: TGFA (rs2862851, beta=-0.067), PIK3R1 (rs10471753, beta=0.062), FGFR3/SLBP (rs2236995, beta=0.049), and TREH/DDX6 (rs496547, beta=-0.058), plus two previously identified loci (DOT1L and RUNX2). This is the first report linking TGFA to human OA.

About DOT1L

The protein encoded by this gene is a histone methyltransferase that methylates lysine-79 of histone H3. It is inactive against free core histones, but shows significant histone methyltransferase activity against nucleosomes. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
