Keratinocyte-associated protein 3 plays a role in body weight and adiposity with differential effects in males and females

Despite the obesity crisis in the United States, the underlying genetics are poorly understood. Our lab previously identified Keratinocyte-associated protein 3, Krtcap3, as a candidate gene for adiposity through a genome-wide association study in outbred rats, where increased liver expression of Krt...
