Variability in Ethanol Biodisposition in Whites Is Modulated by Polymorphisms in the Adh1b and Adh1c Genes
ReviewCarmen Martínez et al.(2010)· Hepatology

A comprehensive review of nutrigenetics and nutrigenomics examining how genetic variants influence individual responses to nutrients and dietary interventions. The paper discusses associations between numerous SNPs (rs9939609 in FTO, rs2287019 in GIPR, rs7903146 in TCF7L2, rs5219 in KCNJ11, and many others) and metabolic traits including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and other chronic diseases, along with epigenetic mechanisms by which phytochemicals (curcumin, resveratrol, lycopene) modulate gene expression. The review synthesizes current evidence for precision nutrition approaches tailored to individual genetic profiles.

About SCG3

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the chromogranin/secretogranin family of neuroendocrine secretory proteins. Granins may serve as precursors for biologically active peptides. Some granins have been shown to function as helper proteins in sorting and proteolytic processing of prohormones; however, the function of this protein is unknown. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
