Identification of genetic factors influencing metabolic dysregulation and retinal support for MacTel, a retinal disorder

Identification of genetic factors influencing metabolic dysregulation and retinal support for MacTel, a retinal disorder

Melanie Bahlo and colleagues report a genome-wide association study on the retinal degenerative disease Macular Telangiectasia Type 2, identifying 8 new genome-wide significant loci. Further analyses suggest key roles for genes that transport and synthesize the amino acids serine, glycine and alanin...
