Candidate Genes
Authors used novel data mining tool ExQuest to identify novel candidate genes for existing diabesity QTLs. Next, candidate gene expression in the liver, adipose, and pancreas of diabesity-prone Tally Ho mice and diabesity-resistant C57BL/6J mice was assessed by quantitative PCR analysis. Several potential candidate genes, some with no previous association to diabesity QTLs, were identified. Since QTL intervals may be large and could contain hundreds or thousands of potential candidate genes, this method allows researchers to focus on those with strong potential as well as identify novel candidate genes. Mapping and Phenotype information for this QTL, its variants and associated markersJ:48957NON/LtHl inbred mice were selected for impaired glucose tolerance and NZO/Hl inbreds were selected for polygenic obesity, respectively. Their male F1 progeny consistently developed NIDDM (non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus). A total of 193 (NZO/Hlx NON/LtHl)F2 and 201 (NON/LtHl x NZO/Hl)F2 mice were informative in identifying NIDDM susceptibility trait loci. Nidd1 was contributed by the NON/LtHl background and mapped to an interval of mouse Chromosome 4 that contained the Lepr locus with a peak LOD of approximately 5.7. |
