Transethnic insight into the genetics of glycaemic traits: fine-mapping results from the Population Architecture using Genomics and Epidemiology (PAGE) consortium
AssociationN=26,760Stephanie A. Bien et al.(2017)· Diabetologia

Transethnic fine-mapping study of glycaemic traits in 26,760 participants (Hispanic/Latino, African, Asian, and Native American) using the Metabochip. Replicated 31/39 fasting glucose and 14/17 fasting insulin loci from European GWAS. Identified two novel secondary signals at G6PC2-rs477224 and GCK-rs2908290, a population-specific signal at G6PC2-rs77719485 in African ancestry, and one novel locus at SLC17A2-rs75862513 for fasting insulin.

About TOP1

This gene encodes a DNA topoisomerase, an enzyme that controls and alters the topologic states of DNA during transcription. This enzyme catalyzes the transient breaking and rejoining of a single strand of DNA which allows the strands to pass through one another, thus altering the topology of DNA. This gene is localized to chromosome 20 and has pseudogenes which reside on chromosomes 1 and 22. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
