Type 2 diabetes (T2D) shows complex inheritance, indicating a causal role for multiple inherited DNA variants. Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have now mapped over 20 novel loci where common variants are associated with risk of T2D. Despite this progress, identified risk alleles explain relatively little of the overall variation in T2D risk. To fully understand the genetic architecture of T2D we need to move from locus to gene to pinpoint specific causal gene(s) responsible for observed associations. We need to address allelic heteroaeneitv. where T2D genes are likely to have multiple different common and rare mutations. We need to explore ethnic variation, where the specific complement of gene mutations contributing to T2D are likely to vary in frequency and effect size across ethnic groups. We hypothesize that: (1) each region identified by GWAS contains at least one causal T2D gene, influenced by at least one common functional variant; (2) in addition to the index variant identified by GWAS, one or more additional common variants in each locus influence T2D; (3) in addition to common variants, each gene may harbor rare mutations that more strongly influence risk of T2D, and (4) the identities, frequencies and effects of these variants vary across multiple ethnic groups representative of the US population. To address these hypotheses we propose three Specific Aims. (1) Bring together multiethnic samples representative of the US population, drawn from the Jackson Heart Study, Framingham Heart Study, Multi-Ethnic Cohort Study, and Diabetes Prevention Program, that together include -29,000 individuals with T2D phenotypes and DNA; (2) Identify and fine-map common variants at each locus in each ethnic group by leveraging our multi-ethnic design and emerging data from the 1000 Genomes Project; and (3) Identify rare causal mutations at each locus by performing deep sequencing of all coding exons in each ethnic group. The co-investigators have extensive experience in complex disease genetics and genomics, next-generation sequencing, statistical genetics, metabolic physiology and epidemiology, and have a long track-record of effective collaboration and leadership that, combined with a large multiethnic, well-phenotyped sample, we hope can contribute to RFA-DK-09-004. RELEVANCE (See instructions): Genetic studies of type 2 diabetes (T2D) have identified new genomic risk regions. We will look in these regions for genes, define variation within genes and variation in different people by bringing together -29,000 individuals from ethnic groups representing the US population, map genes in each region, and identify mutations by detailed DNA analysis, leading to better prevention and treatment of T2D.

2型糖尿病(T2D)表现出复杂的遗传，表明多个遗传DNA之间存在因果关系 变种。全基因组关联研究现已定位了20多个新的常见基因座 变异与T2D的风险相关。尽管取得了这一进展，但已识别的风险等位基因解释的相对较少 T2D风险的总体变化。为了完全理解T2D的遗传结构，我们需要从 从基因到基因定位特定的因果基因(S)，负责观察到的关联。我们需要解决 等位基因异源异源。其中T2D基因可能有多个不同的常见和罕见突变。我们 需要探索种族差异，其中导致T2D的基因突变的特定互补是 可能在不同的种族群体中出现的频率和影响的大小不同。我们假设：(1)每个区域 由Gwas鉴定的至少包含一个原因T2D基因，受至少一个共同功能的影响 变种；(2)除GWAS确定的索引变种外， 每个基因座影响T2D；(3)除了常见的变异外，每个基因都可能包含罕见的突变， 更强烈地影响T2D的风险，以及(4)这些变异的身份、频率和影响各不相同 在代表美国人口的多个民族中。为了解决这些假设，我们提出了 三个具体目标。(1)汇集代表美国人口的多民族样本，来自 杰克逊心脏研究、弗雷明翰心脏研究、多种族队列研究和糖尿病预防 计划，包括-29,000名具有T2D表型和DNA的个体；(2)识别和精细作图 通过利用我们的多种族设计和新兴技术，在每个种族群体的每个座位上都有共同的变异 来自1000基因组计划的数据；以及(3)通过执行以下操作来识别每个基因座上罕见的因果突变 对每个种族的所有编码外显子进行深度测序。联合调查员有丰富的经验。 在复杂疾病遗传学和基因组学、下一代测序、统计遗传学、代谢 生理学和流行病学，并有有效合作和领导的长期记录， 结合大量多民族、表型良好的样本，我们希望能为RFA-DK-09-004做出贡献。 相关性(请参阅说明)： 2型糖尿病(T2D)的遗传学研究已经确定了新的基因组危险区域。我们会看看这些 基因区域，通过将29,000个基因集合在一起定义基因内的变异和不同人的变异 来自代表美国人口的种族群体的个人，绘制每个地区的基因图谱，并确定 通过详细的DNA分析发现突变，从而更好地预防和治疗T2D。
