Lack of Arg972 polymorphism in the IRS1 gene in Parakanã brazilian indians

Abstract

Several polymorphisms in the insulin receptor substrate-I (IRS I) gene have been reported in the last years. The most common IRSI variant, a Gly -cArg substitution at codon 972 (Arg972 IRS I). is more prevalent among subjects who have features of insulin resistance syndrome associated, or not, with type 2 diabetes in European populations. To determine whether the absence of IRS I polymorphism is a more general characteristic of Paleo-Indian-derived populations, we examined the Arg972 IRSI polymorphism in Parakan5t Indians and found a lack of this polymorphism in the Parakana population.
