Project description:<p>The ~52,000 sample Type 2 Diabetes Exome Sequencing project is a collaboration of six consortia with various funding mechanisms that have joined together to investigate genetic variants for type 2 diabetes (T2D) using the largest T2D case/control sample set compiled to date. This includes samples from: <ul> <li>Type 2 Diabetes Genetic Exploration by Next-generation sequencing in multi-Ethnic Samples (T2D-GENES)</li> <li>Genetics of Type 2 Diabetes (GoT2D)</li> <li>Exome Sequencing Project (ESP)</li> <li>Slim Initiative in Genomic Medicine for the Americas: Type 2 Diabetes (SIGMA T2D)</li> <li>Lundbeck Foundation Centre for Applied Medical Genomics in Personalised Disease Prediction, Prevention, and Care (LuCAMP)</li> <li>Progress in Diabetes Genetics in Youth (ProDIGY)</li> </ul> </p> <p>This data generated from the SIGMA Diabetes in Mexico Study (DMS) was part of the Slim Initiative in Genomic Medicine for the Americas: Type 2 Diabetes (SIGMA T2D), which is an international research consortium funded by the Carlos Slim Foundation that seeks to identify the genetic risk factors for type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Mexico and Latin America and translate those findings into improved treatment and prevention of diabetes. The SIGMA T2D project has sequenced and genotyped more than 13,000 samples from Mexican and Mexican Americans.</p> <p>The individuals were obtained from over 20 cohorts across the 6 consortia that are listed in Table 1. The strategy was to perform deep exome sequencing of individuals, 24,991 with T2D and 24,953 controls, divided among five ancestry groups: Europeans, East Asians, South Asians, American Hispanics, and African Americans. The T2D-GENES, ProDIGY and SIGMA studies, sequencing was performed at the Broad Institute using the Agilent v2 capture reagent or Illumina Rapid Capture on Illumina HiSeq machines. Please note that while we summarize the full sample list in publications and below, two of the cohorts below are not in dbGAP, due to the samples not being consented for deposition. This includes the Kooperative Gesundheitsforschung in der Region Augsburg (KORA) study and Lundbeck Foundation Centre for Applied Medical Genomics in Personalised Disease Prediction, Prevention, and Care (LuCamp) study. The Exome Sequencing Project (ESP) was deposited in dbGAP as part of their initial study and the phs numbers for that project can be found here: <a href="https://esp.gs.washington.edu/drupal/dbGaP_Releases">https://esp.gs.washington.edu/drupal/dbGaP_Releases</a>. </p> <p><table style="width:100%" border="1"> <caption>Table 1. 52,000 sample T2D Case/Control Whole Exome Sequencing Studies</caption> <tr> <th>Ancestry</th> <th>Consortia</th> <th>Study</th> <th>Countries of Origin</th> <th># Cases</th> <th># Controls</th> </tr> <tr> <td>African American</td> <td>T2D-GENES Project 1</td> <td>Jackson Heart Study</td> <td>US</td> <td>500</td> <td>526</td> </tr> <tr> <td>African American</td> <td>T2D-GENES Project 1</td> <td>Wake Forest School of Medicine Study</td> <td>US</td> <td>518</td> <td>530</td> </tr> <tr> <td>African American</td> <td>ESP</td> <td>Exome Sequencing Project (ESP)</td> <td>US</td> <td>467</td> <td>1374</td> </tr> <tr> <td>African American</td> <td>T2D-GENES Follow up study</td> <td>BioMe Biobank Program (BioMe)</td> <td>US</td> <td>1297</td> <td>1256</td> </tr> <tr> <td>East Asian</td> <td>T2D-GENES Project 1</td> <td>Korea Association Research Project</td> <td>Korea</td> <td>526</td> <td>561</td> </tr> <tr> <td>East Asian</td> <td>T2D-GENES Project 1& Follow up Study</td> <td>Singapore Diabetes Cohort Study;

Project description:With an escalating global burden, T2DM is associated to long-term complications that have contributed to the burden of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The objective of this manuscript is to conduct an Exome-Wide Association Study (EWAS) on T2DM Emirati individuals to improve our understanding on diabetes-related complications for a more enhanced disease management and improve therapeutic targets.
Project description:The GoDARTS T2D-GENES Exome sequencing study is a subset of a larger Type 2 Diabetes Exome Sequencing project. This effort is a collaboration of six consortia with various funding mechanisms that have joined together to investigate genetic variants for type 2 diabetes (T2D) using the largest T2D case/control sample set compiled to date and includes samples from: T2D-GENES, GoT2D, ESP, SIGMA T2D, LuCAMP, and ProDIGY.
This data generated from the Genetics of Diabetes and Audit Research Tayside Study (GoDARTS) cohort was part of the T2D-GENES (Type 2 Diabetes Genetic Exploration by Next-generation sequencing in multi-Ethnic Samples) consortium, which is a NIDDK-funded international research consortium that seeks to identify genetic variants for T2D through multiethnic sequencing studies. Sequencing for the GoDARTS study was performed at the Broad Institute using Illumina Rapid Capture on Illumina HiSeq machines.
