▶Polymorphisms in CHDH gene and the risk of tooth agenesisAssociationN=344Adrianna Mostowska et al.(2011)· Birth Defects Research Part A: Clinical and Molecular Teratology
This case-control study examined 21 SNPs in 13 folate and choline metabolism genes for associations with tooth agenesis (hypodontia/oligodontia) in a Polish population of 159 cases and 185 controls. The CHDH gene variant rs6445606 showed the strongest association with a protective effect (OR=0.434, p=0.0004), with individuals carrying the C allele having reduced risk of tooth agenesis. Multifactor dimensionality reduction analysis revealed a significant epistatic interaction between CHDH rs6445606 and PLD2 rs3764897 (p=0.004).
About PLD2
The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidic acid and choline. The activity of the encoded enzyme is enhanced by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and ADP-ribosylation factor-1. This protein localizes to the peripheral membrane and may be involved in cytoskeletal organization, cell cycle control, transcriptional regulation, and/or regulated secretion. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]
