Rare MTNR1B variants impairing melatonin receptor 1B function contribute to type 2 diabetes
Genome-wide association studies have revealed that common noncoding variants in MTNR1B (encoding melatonin receptor 1B, also known as MT 2) increase type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk. Although the strongest association signal was highly significant (P < 1 - 10 g 20), its contribution to T2D risk was...
