PEMT Exon 8 SNP distribution in human subjects.

		Percent of Population
	GG Val/Val	GA Val/Met	AA Met/Met
NAFLD (n=28)	7.1	25.0	67.9 ^*
Controls (n=59)	18.6	40.7	40.7

DNA was isolated from subjects with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and from controls with normal liver fat and was analyzed for the V175M SNP. Data are presented as percent of group (n/group indicated in parentheses).

= p<0.03 that AA genotype (loss of function SNP) occurred more frequently in NAFLD patients than in control subjects by two-tailed Fisher’s Exact Test.
