Abstract:
The invention relates to variants that predispose to risk of type 2 diabetes, basal cell carcinoma and breast cancer. It has been discovered that certain genetic variants confer risk of these diseases when inherited from one parent, but not the other. The invention provides methods of disease management, including diagnostic methods, utilizing such parental origin effects.
