MAST2 and type 1 diabetes mellitus: Identified genes were further characterized through pathway, cell-type enrichment, drug prediction, molecular docking, and phenome-wide association studies.<h4>Results</h4>We identified ten genes associated with T1D risk, seven of which (ELK4, PHACTR4, MAST2, ST7L, C1orf216, SULT1A2, and WFS1) are novel candidates in this context.
