List of the 340 human genes associated with obesity traits extracted from 3 previous publications: 1) Mete Civelek, et. al, Am J Hum Genet., 2017 [56]; 2) Masato Akiyama, et.al, Nature Genetics, 2017 [57]; and 3) Audrey Chu, et.al, Nature Genetics, 2017 [58]. 207 of these human genes had C. elegans orthologs. Since there is often more than one C. elegans ortholog per human gene, 386 C. elegans orthologs were actually identified to correspond to the 207 human genes. However, only 293 C. elegans genes were screened because there weren’t available RNAi clones for 96 of the C, elegans orthologs. 14 obese, 2 generic lean, and 3 DIO-suppressor genes were identified and validated.
