The role of polygenic susceptibility to obesity among carriers of pathogenic mutations in MC4R in the UK Biobank population
BACKGROUND: Melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) deficiency, caused by mutations in MC4R, is the most common cause of monogenic forms of obesity. However, these mutations have often been identified in small-scale, case-focused studies. Here, we assess the penetrance of previously reported MC4R mutations a...
