Genetic map reveals influence of DNA on metabolism

A new study, published in Nature Genetics, created the largest genetic map of human metabolism, revealing new insights into the role of metabolites in health and disease and creating a blueprint for further research.

New Genetic Map of Human Metabolism Reveals How Genes Influence Health and Disease

A recent study published in Nature Genetics developed the largest genetic map of human metabolism, giving new insights into the role of metabolites in health and disease and providing a framework for future research.

Largest Genetic Map of Human Metabolism Created

The contribution of genetics to the variability in people’s metabolism has remained largely unknown. This is, in part, because genetic studies of human metabolism have been limited in scale and allelic breadth. Now, the largest genetic map of human metabolism has been created, revealing new insights on the role of metabolites in health and disease and creating a blueprint for further research. This work is published in Nature Genetics in the pap…
