Our pilot GWAS reported that two genes, mitogen-activated protein kinase, kinase 6 (MAP2K6) and DnaJ Heat shock Protein Family Member C6 (DNAJC6), were distinguishingly related to both the resting metabolic rate (RMR) and body mass index (BMI) as biomarkers of obesity in children. This evidence concerns the gene DNAJC6 and Obesity.
