DNA sequence variation in ACVR1C encoding the activin receptor-like kinase 7 influences body fat distribution and protects against type 2 diabetes
A genetic predisposition to higher waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for BMI (WHRadjBMI), a measure of body fat distribution, associates with increased risk for type 2 diabetes. We conducted an exome-wide association study of coding variation in UK Biobank (405,569 individuals) to identify variants that l...
