To this aim, we have re-sequenced the coding regions of GCKR, PPP1R3B, LYPLAL1, NCAN and TM6SF2 genes in NAFLD and control subjects, where PNPLA3 rs738409 and MBOAT7 rs641738 genotypes were also obtained. The gene discussed is MBOAT7; the disease is metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
