摘要：

Recent successes in identifying loci involved in predisposition to type 2 diabetes have been driven by genome-wide association studies in populations of European descent. a new discovery, using samples of east Asian origin, of diabetes susceptibility variants mapping to the KCNQ1 gene highlights the importance of extending these studies to a wider range of populations.
