  • Identification of five novel genetic loci related to facial morphology by genome-wide association studies - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 29921221

    ABSTRACT: Background Face morphology is strongly determined by genetic factors. However, only a small number of genes related to face morphology have been identified to date. Here, we performed a two-stage genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 85 face morphological traits in 7569 Koreans (5643 in the discovery set and 1926 in the replication set). Results In this study, we analyzed 85 facial traits, including facial angles. After discovery GWAS, 128 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) showing an association of P < 5 × 10− 6 were selected to determine the replication of the associations, and meta-analysis of discovery GWAS and the replication analysis resulted in five genome-wide significant loci. The OSR1-WDR35 [rs7567283, G allele, beta (se) = −0.536 (0.096), P = 2

  • Effect of genetic variants in UBE2O and TPK1 on facial morphology of Koreans - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37415797

    ABSTRACT: Abstract Human face is a highly heritable and complex trait. Many genome-wide analyses have identified genetic variants influencing facial morphology. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) investigating facial morphologies of different populations provide a comprehensive insight into the genetic basis of the human face. Here, we report a GWAS of normal facial variation in Koreans using an array optimized for the Korean population (KoreanChip). We found that novel genetic variants encompassing four loci reached the genome-wide significance threshold. They include LOC107984547, UBE2O, TPK1, and LINC01148 loci associated with facial angle, brow ridge protrusion, nasal height, and eyelid curvature. Our results also validated previously published genetic loci, including FAT4, SOX9,
