These variants were FTO (fat mass and obesity associated) (rs9939609), GNPDA2 (glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase 2) (rs10938397), KCTD15 (potassium channel tetramerisation domain containing 15) (rs11084753), MC4R (melanocortin-4 receptor) (rs17782313), MTCH2 (mitochondrial carrier 2) (rs10838738), NEGR1 (neuronal growth regulator 1) (rs2815752), TMEM18 (transmembrane protein 18) (rs6548238), and SH2B1 (SH2B adaptor protein 1) rs7498665). Here, TMEM18 is linked to obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency.
