Genetic studies of body mass index yield new insights for obesity biology

Adam E. Locke, +481 more
TL;DR: This paper conducted a genome-wide association study and meta-analysis of body mass index (BMI), a measure commonly used to define obesity and assess adiposity, in up to 339,224 individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cleft lip and palate: understanding genetic and environmental influences.

Michael J. Dixon, +3 more
- 01 Mar 2011 - 
TL;DR: Using a combination of epidemiology, careful phenotyping, genome-wide association studies and analysis of animal models, several distinct genetic and environmental risk factors have been identified and confirmed for non-syndromic CLP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive human genetic maps: individual and sex-specific variation in recombination.

Karl W. Broman, +4 more
- 01 Sep 1998 - 
TL;DR: Comprehensive human genetic maps were constructed on the basis of nearly 1 million genotypes from eight CEPH families and incorporated >8,000 short tandem-repeat polymorphisms (STRPs), primarily from Généthon, the Cooperative Human Linkage Center, the Utah Marker Development Group, and the Marshfield Medical Research Foundation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cloning and characterization of a novel bicoid-related homeobox transcription factor gene, RIEG, involved in Rieger syndrome

Elena V. Semina, +11 more
- 01 Dec 1996 - 
TL;DR: The human cDNA and genomic characterization of a new homeobox gene, RIEG, causing Rieger syndrome is reported, providing opportunities for understanding ocular, dental and umbilical development and the pleiotropic interactions of pituitary and limb morphogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in IRF6 cause Van der Woude and popliteal pterygium syndromes.

Shinji Kondo, +25 more
- 01 Oct 2002 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that haploinsufficiency of IRF6 disrupts orofacial development and are consistent with dominant-negative mutations disturbing development of the skin and genitalia.
