Genome-wide association study in Han Chinese identifies three novel loci for human height
Meta-analysisN=8,415Yongchen Hao et al.(2013)· Human Genetics

A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies in 6,534 Han Chinese subjects identified three novel loci for human height at rs12612930 (ZNF638), rs11021504 (MAML2), and rs11082671 (C18orf12) reaching genome-wide significance (P < 5 × 10⁻⁸), along with confirmation of two previously reported loci (CS and CYP19A1). The study provided supporting evidence for 35 SNPs from previous GWAS and demonstrates substantial genetic overlap between Asian and European populations for this complex trait.

About PLAG1

Pleomorphic adenoma gene 1 encodes a zinc finger protein with 2 putative nuclear localization signals. PLAG1, which is developmentally regulated, has been shown to be consistently rearranged in pleomorphic adenomas of the salivary glands. PLAG1 is activated by the reciprocal chromosomal translocations involving 8q12 in a subset of salivary gland pleomorphic adenomas. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
