▶Genome-wide associated loci influencing interleukin (IL)-10, IL-1Ra, and IL-6 levels in African AmericansAssociationN=707Fasil Tekola Ayele et al.(2012)· Immunogenetics
This genome-wide association study (GWAS) identified genetic variants influencing interleukin levels in African Americans. IL-10 levels showed genome-wide significant associations with 8 SNPs, most notably rs5743185 in PMS1 (p=2.30×10⁻¹⁰), with successful replication of rs17365948 in YWHAZ. IL-1Ra levels showed suggestive associations with SNPs in ASB3 and the IL-1 gene family, with replication of rs4251961. IL-6 levels showed genome-wide significant association with one variant near RP11-314E23.1 (p=8.63×10⁻⁹).
About YWHAZ
This gene product belongs to the 14-3-3 family of proteins which mediate signal transduction by binding to phosphoserine-containing proteins. This highly conserved protein family is found in both plants and mammals, and this protein is 99% identical to the mouse, rat and sheep orthologs. The encoded protein interacts with IRS1 protein, suggesting a role in regulating insulin sensitivity. Several transcript variants that differ in the 5' UTR but that encode the same protein have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
