Previously, we identified a locus on 11p influencing obesity in families with type 2 diabetes. Based on mouse studies, we selected TUB as a functional candidate gene and performed association studies to determine whether this controls obesity. We analyzed the genotypes of 13 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) around TUB in 492 unrelated type 2 diabetic patients with known BMI values. One SNP (rs1528133) was found to have a significant effect on BMI (1.54 kg/m2, P ⴝ 0.006). This association was confirmed in a population enriched for type 2 diabetes, using 750 individuals who were not selected for type 2 diabetes. Two SNPs in linkage disequilibrium with rs1528133 and mapping to the 3ⴕ end of TUB, rs2272382, and rs2272383 also affected BMI by 1.3 kg/m2 (P ⴝ 0.016 and P ⴝ 0.010, respectively). Combined analysis confirmed this association (P ⴝ 0.005 and P ⴝ 0.002, respectively). Moreover, comparing 349 obese subjects (BMI >30 kg/m2) from the combined cohort with 289 normal subjects (BMI
