Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStructural Consequences of the Polymorphism Q223R in the Human Leptin Receptor: A Molecular Dynamics StudyJonathan P. Carrillo-Vázquez, Brenda Chimal-Vega, Beatriz Zamora-López et al.Leptin Receptor (LEPR) is a component of a signaling pathway related to appetite and energy expenditure. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) of Leptin receptor gene (lepr) have been proposed as possible modulator of adipose tissue and body weight. The main phenomenological consequence reported of these SNPs is the modulation of the LEP-LEPR interaction promoting the weight gain. Particularly, Q223R polymorphism has … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2013 · 7,839 accessesView PDF Cite
