Genetic Markers Associated With Plasma Protein C Level in African Americans: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study
AssociationN=2,701Munir MS et al.(2014)· Genetic Epidemiology

Genome-wide association study of plasma protein C levels in 2,701 African Americans from the ARIC study identified 79 genome-wide significant SNPs in two regions (2q14 and 20q11). The top signal was rs867186 (missense, S219G in PROCR; p=9.84×10⁻⁶⁵, β=0.49 µg/ml, 10% variance explained). Additional significant hits were rs7580658 and rs1799808 near the PROC gene, and novel associations with CYP27C1 and MYO7B were discovered.

About EDEM2

In the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), misfolded proteins are retrotranslocated to the cytosol and degraded by the proteasome in a process known as ER-associated degradation (ERAD). EDEM2 belongs to a family of proteins involved in ERAD of glycoproteins (Mast et al., 2005 [PubMed 15537790]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
