Brief description Obesity is associated with chronic diseases, such as diabetes and heart disease. Fat varies between individuals and can also vary across an individual's lifetime. The differences reflect genetic and physiological differences as well as different behaviours. Investigating the genes that regulate fat formation, such as the DNA-binding proteins under study here, should help us to understand and ultimately control excessive fat accumulation in order to reduce the prevalence of chronic diseases.
