Genetic Variants in the ST6GAL1 Gene Are Associated with Thyroglobulin Plasma Level in Healthy Individuals

Thyroglobulin (Tg) is a 660 kDa iodoglycoprotein that serves as a scaffold for thyroid hormone synthesis. Although a twin study showed that variability of serum Tg levels has a substantial genetic basis, no genome-wide association study (GWAS) of serum/plasma Tg levels has been performed to date. Th...
