GWAS for serum galactose-deficient IgA1 implicates critical genes of the O-glycosylation pathway.

GWAS for serum galactose-deficient IgA1 implicates critical genes of the O-glycosylation pathway.

Aberrant O-glycosylation of serum immunoglobulin A1 (IgA1) represents a heritable pathogenic defect in IgA nephropathy, the most common form of glomerulonephritis worldwide, but specific genetic factors involved in its determination are not known. We performed a quantitative GWAS for serum levels of...
