Genetic analysis of single-minded 1 gene in early-onset severely obese children and adolescents.

BACKGROUND:Inactivating mutations of the hypothalamic transcription factor singleminded1 (SIM1) have been shown as a cause of early-onset severe obesity. However, to date, the contribution of SIM1 mutations to the obesity phenotype has only been studied in a few populations. In this study, we screen...
