▶Identification of CpG-SNPs associated with type 2 diabetes and differential DNA methylation in human pancreatic isletsAssociationN=84Dayeh TA et al.(2013)· Diabetologia
Of 40 SNPs previously associated with type 2 diabetes, 19 (48%) introduce or remove CpG sites. In 84 human pancreatic islet donors, all 16 analyzed CpG-SNPs showed statistically significant differential DNA methylation (p≤2.3×10⁻⁵). Several CpG-SNPs including rs391300 (SRR), rs5945326 (DUSP9), rs11708067 (ADCY5), rs5015480 (HHEX), rs13266634 (SLC30A8), rs1801214 (WFS1), rs564398 (CDKN2A), and rs2237895 (KCNQ1) were associated with differential gene expression, alternative splicing, or hormone secretion, suggesting DNA methylation-mediated mechanisms linking genetic variants to type 2 diabetes pathogenesis.
About RBMS1
This gene encodes a member of a small family of proteins which bind single stranded DNA/RNA. These proteins are characterized by the presence of two sets of ribonucleoprotein consensus sequence (RNP-CS) that contain conserved motifs, RNP1 and RNP2, originally described in RNA binding proteins, and required for DNA binding. These proteins have been implicated in such diverse functions as DNA replication, gene transcription, cell cycle progression and apoptosis. Several transcript variants, resulting from alternative splicing and encoding different isoforms, have been described. A pseudogene for this locus is found on chromosome 12.
