- Population
- Chinese (Han)
- Study Design
- Six tagging SNPs from FOXO1A and FOXO3A were selected and genotyped in 1817 centenarians and younger individuals
- Conclusions
- Two SNPs of FOXO1A were found to be associated with longevity in women (P = 0.01-0.005)

- FKH1; FKHR; FOXO1A
- Common name
- forkhead box O1
- Description
- This gene belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors which are characterized by a distinct forkhead domain. The specific function of this gene has not yet been determined; however, it may play a role in myogenic growth and differentiation. Translocation of this gene with PAX3 has been associated with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
