Comuzzie-1997 performed a genome-wide scan and conducted multipoint linkage analysis using a general pedigree-based variance component approach to identify genes with measurable effects on quantitative variation in leptin levels in Mexican Americans. Strong evidence of linkage between serum leptin levels and a microsatellite polymorphism on Chr 2 (D2S1788) was found. On leptin see GEM:07q313/LEP." |
