High impact information on TAF5L

  • The TAF5L gene on chromosome 1q42 is associated with type 1 diabetes in Russian affected patients [1].
  • Our results suggest that the TAF5L gene, encoding TAF5L-like RNA polymerase II p300/CBP associated factor (PCAF)-associated factor, could represent the susceptibility gene for T1D on chromosome 1q42 in Russian affected patients [1].
  • Together with the A/C744 TAF5L SNP, these markers share common T(-25)/A744/T1362 and C(-25)/C744/T1362 haplotypes associated with higher and lower risk of diabetes (Odds Ratio = 2.15 and 0.62, respectively) [1].
