Whole exome sequencing identifies variation in CYB5A and RNF10 associated with adiposity and type 2 diabetes
AssociationN=7,667Ke Huang et al.(2014)· Obesity

Whole exome sequencing in 177 Pima Indians identified rs7238987 in CYB5A associated with body fatness (p=7.0×10⁻⁶) and a novel RNF10 variant (R151H) associated with adiposity. Both SNPs and variants increased risk for Type 2 Diabetes (rs7238987: OR=1.13, p=0.01; RNF10: OR=1.49, p=9.5×10⁻³), with effects mediated through body mass index. CYB5A encodes a component of stearoyl-CoA desaturase, while RNF10's role in obesity was supported by knockout mouse data.

About GORAB

This gene encodes a member of the golgin family, a group of coiled-coil proteins localized to the Golgi. The encoded protein may function in the secretory pathway. The encoded protein, which also localizes to the cytoplasm, was identified by interactions with the N-terminal kinase-like protein, and thus it may function in mitosis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with geroderma osteodysplastica. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
