Evidence for a Role of LPGAT1 in Influencing BMI and Percent Body Fat in Native Americans
OBJECTIVE: A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was recently completed in 1120 Pima Indians to identify loci that influence BMI. Among the top 100 signals were three variants that mapped within the lysophosphatidylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (LPGAT1) gene. LPGAT1 belongs to a large family of acyltr...
