Using current gene expression profiles from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) collection, we identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with obesity and found 12 important genes (CRLS1, ANG, ALPK3, ADSSL1, ABCC1, HLF, AZGP1, TSC22D3, F2R, FXN, PEMT, and SPTAN1) using a random forest classifier. The gene discussed is ALPK3; the disease is obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency.
