rs12101261 — TSHR TSHR Intron 1 Adjacent Regulatory Variant
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele T Category Autoimmune Tolerance & T-Cell Regulation Autoimmune, Thyroid, Hormones & Thyroid, Immune & Autoimmune, T-Cell Regulation, Selenium

Intronic regulatory variant in TSHR intron 1 that is the primary PLZF repressor-binding site in the open chromatin region controlling thymic TSHR expression; the T allele allows stronger PLZF binding, reduces intrathymic TSHR levels, impairs central immune tolerance to thyroid antigens, and confers susceptibility to Graves' disease

rs121434289 — SLC39A4 Gly374Arg
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele T Category Iron & Mineral Transport Zinc, Micronutrients, Skin Health, Digestive Health, Carrier Status, Congenital

Missense variant in ZIP4 zinc transporter causing total loss of intestinal zinc absorption when homozygous; responsible for classical acrodermatitis enteropathica

Continue reading
rs121907892 — SLC22A12 W258X
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele A Category Uric Acid & Kidney Function Uric Acid, Kidney Function, Gout, Ancestry-Specific, Exercise, Kidney Stones

Nonsense mutation in URAT1 that abolishes urate reabsorption in the kidney, causing renal hypouricemia type 1 with very low serum uric acid and risk of exercise-induced acute kidney injury

rs121909567 — SERPINC1 Budapest 3 (Leu131Phe)
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele A Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Blood Clotting, Thrombophilia, Blood Thinners, Cardiovascular, Women's Health, Carrier Status

Pathogenic missense in antithrombin III; the A allele causes type II heparin-binding-site (HBS) antithrombin deficiency with homozygotes facing severe, often childhood-onset thrombophilia

Continue reading
rs12487736 — SCAP SCAP Val798Ile
Chromosome 3 Risk Allele C Category Atherogenic Lipoproteins Cholesterol, Cardiovascular, Atherosclerosis, Heart Disease, Lipid Metabolism, Statins

Missense variant in the SCAP cholesterol-sensor gene (Val798Ile)

Continue reading
rs12593008 — LIPC
Chromosome 15 Risk Allele C Category Triglycerides & Fatty Acids HDL Cholesterol, Fat Metabolism, Cholesterol, Cardiovascular, Diet

Intronic LIPC variant in intron 1 associated with low HDL risk, predominantly in women; the C allele is the risk allele for reduced HDL-cholesterol levels

Continue reading
rs1260326 — GCKR P446L
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele T Category Liver Fat Triglycerides, Fat Metabolism, Insulin, Cardiovascular, Diet, Liver Health

Coding GCKR variant (Pro446Leu) that directly reduces GCKRP sensitivity to fructose-6-phosphate, constitutively activating hepatic glucokinase and producing the characteristic trade-off of lower fasting glucose and insulin resistance against higher triglycerides, CRP, and NAFLD risk

Continue reading
rs12785878 — DHCR7 Near gene T>G
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele G Category Vitamin D Metabolism Vitamin D, Bone Health, Immune System, Cholesterol, Cardiovascular

Influences vitamin D synthesis by regulating how much 7-dehydrocholesterol is available for conversion to vitamin D3 in the skin

Continue reading
rs1799793 — ERCC2 D312N
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele T Category Cancer Risk Cancer Risk, DNA Repair, Cancer Screening, Smoking Interaction

Missense variant in the XPD helicase that reduces nucleotide excision repair fidelity, modestly increasing susceptibility to UV-induced and carcinogen-induced DNA damage across multiple cancer types

Continue reading
rs198968 — KLK4
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele G Category Dental & Oral Health Dental & Oral Health, Enamel Health, Minerals, Calcium, Inflammation

Intronic variant in kallikrein-related peptidase 4 gene affecting susceptibility to dental caries in primary dentition
