LOF mutations cause partial lipodystrophy. The evidence suggesting that some gain of function variants cause obesity is weakCreated: 8 Nov 2015, 5:59 p.m.
LOF mutations in this gene cause a totally different disease, partial lipodystrophy. The suggestion that n terminal mutations may be associated with obesity is based on weak evidence in a single paperCreated: 8 Nov 2015, 5:43 p.m.
