Loss of FTO antagonises Wnt signaling and leads to developmental defects associated with ciliopathies.
Common intronic variants in the Human fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) are found to be associated with an increased risk of obesity. Overexpression of FTO correlates with increased food intake and obesity, whilst loss-of-function results in lethality and severe developmental defects. Despi...
