rs13266634

[type-2 diabetes and in 1,064 controls

The major alleles of the SLC30A8 SNP rs13266634 and the HHEX SNP rs7923837 associate with reduced insulin secretion, but not with insulin resistance. [type-2 diabetes patients are rs13266634(C;C) homozygotes; they are diabetes-prone and characterised by a 19% decrease in first-phase insulin release following an intravenous glucose load.

• Note: this SNP, rs13266634, is not represented on the Affymetrix 5.0 chip. Since it is also in an area of high recombination, it also lacks a proxy on the Affy chip and thus could not have been detected in the large genome-wide type-2 diabetes study performed by the Wellcome Trust Consortium.
