Genetic Modifiers of Mendelian Diseases of Interest to Niddk: The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases invites research applications to identify and characterize genetic modifiers for Mendelian diseases affecting organs and tissues within the mission of NIDDK. Striking variations are seen in clinical expression of genetic diseases, presumably due to differences in the genetic makeup and environmental exposure of the individual. Even though a mutation in a single gene may play a predominant role in the development of a Mendelian disorder, individuals with identical genotypes at that locus may display considerable variation in the prevalence, severity, and clinical symptoms of the disorder. To understand this variation and to exploit it as a target for therapy, it is important to identify genes or other factors that contribute to this variation.
