rs1121980, a SNP in the FTO gene, showed the strongest association of several SNPs in the region with early onset obesity in a study of ~1,000 Caucasians.

The odds ratio for the rs1121980(T) risk allele was 1.66 (CI:1.3-2.01); and the odds ratios for heterozygotes and homozygotes (rs1121980(T;T)) were estimated (with a correct p<0.0001) at 1.67 (CI: 1.22-2.27) and 2.76 (CI: 1.88-4.03), respectively. [PMID 18159244OA-icon.png]

Note that although rs1121980 showed the strongest association, it is in a block in the FTO gene of at least 5 other SNPs that are in linkage disequilibrium (r2>=0.88 for all). The other 5 SNPs are:
