Genetic association of SNPs in the FTO gene and predisposition to obesity in Malaysian Malays

Show other versions (1)

The common variants in the fat mass- and obesity-associated (FTO) gene have been previously found to be associated with obesity in various adult populations. The objective of the present study was to investigate whether the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and linkage disequilibrium (LD) block...
