C2CD4A/B variants in the predisposition of lung cancer in the Chinese Han population.
Title: C2CD4A/B variants in the predisposition of lung cancer in the Chinese Han population.
C2CD4A is a transcriptional coregulator of the glycolytic pathway whose dysfunction accounts for the diabetes susceptibility associated with the chromosome 15 GWAS locus.
Title: Identification of C2CD4A as a human diabetes susceptibility gene with a role in β cell insulin secretion.
rs7163757 contributes to genetic risk of islet dysfunction and type 2 diabetes by increasing NFAT-mediated islet enhancer activity and modulating C2CD4B, and possibly C2CD4A, expression in (patho)physiologic states.

The present data thus provide evidence for a limited role for changes in VPS13C expression in conferring altered type 2 diabetes risk at this locus, particularly in females, and suggest that C2CD4A, but not C2CD4B, may also be involved.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
