      Background: Diabetes mellitus is a disease that may result from interaction between environmental factors and a strong genetic component. The current study is aimed at exploring three single nucleotide polymorphisms to identify the associated ones with type 2 diabetes in the Egyptian society. The studied single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs10096097 in GOAT, rs6740584 in CREB1, and rs62521874 in MAFA) were examined via genotyping cases (n = 98) and irrelevant healthy subjects (n = 82). Results: Associations were checked using dominant, recessive, genotypic, allelic, and Cochran–Armitage trend models. By comparing diabetic patients with controls, rs6740584 was associated with type 2 diabetes by employing all used models except the recessive model. Rs10096097 was connected with type 2 diabetes using the genotypic association, Cochran–Armitage trend test, and recessive model and not any other model. Rs62521874 was not linked with type 2 diabetes in all models. Moreover, haplotype association for rs10096097 and rs62521874 was conducted as these two single nucleotide polymorphisms were located on the same chromosome. The haplotype pattern rs10096097:G—rs62521874:A was identified as a biomarker for type 2 diabetes susceptibility in the Egyptian community. Conclusions: The GOAT and CREB1 polymorphisms showed susceptibility to type 2 diabetes. Moreover, MAFA had no role in the disease except through the haplotype with GOAT polymorphism.
