Metabolism as a complex genetic trait, a systems biology approach: Implications for inborn errors of metabolism and clinical diseases [PDF]
Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2008 SummaryMultifactorial and polygenic inheritance is commonly recognized for many genetic conditions including physical anomalies, complex congenital malformation syndromes, and even common disorders such as adult‐onset diabetes mellitus. It has only recently been suggested as a mechanism for inheritance in inborn errors of metabolism.
