    increased obesity risk linked to N221D allele may be due in part to PC1/3-induced loss of resilience to stressors rather than strictly to decreased enzymatic activity on peptide precursors

    we found eight known variants and two novel heterozygous variants (c.1095 + 1G > A and p.S24C), and identified and functionally characterized two rare novel PCSK1 variants of which c.1095 + 1G > A caused complete loss of protein function. In addition to confirming rs6232 and rs6234 in PCSK1 as polygenic risk variants for childhood obesity, we describe an association of rs725522 with insulin metabolism.

    Functional and clinical relevance of novel and known PCSK1 variants for childhood obesity and glucose metabolism.
