rs5029939 — TNFAIP3
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele G Category TNF, NF-kB & Inflammatory Cytokines Autoimmune, Inflammation, Lupus, Gut Barrier, Immune & Gut, Sjögren's

Intronic variant near TNFAIP3 that tags a 6q23 haplotype strongly associated with SLE and Sjogren's syndrome through impaired A20 ubiquitin-editing activity and NF-kB dysregulation

rs61750630 — VWF C2362F
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele A Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Carrier Status, Thrombosis, Genetic Counseling, Thrombophilia

Pathogenic missense variant in von Willebrand factor causing intracellular retention of the mutant protein; homozygosity causes severe type 3 von Willebrand disease, heterozygous carriers typically have reduced VWF levels and mild bleeding symptoms

rs6234 — PCSK1 PCSK1 Q665E (Gln665Glu)
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele C Category Appetite & Obesity Obesity, Insulin, Appetite, Pancreatic Beta Cell, Energy Metabolism, Satiety

Missense variant in PCSK1 that causes a Gln665Glu substitution in the C-terminal domain of prohormone convertase 1/3 (PC1/3), reducing enzyme activity and impairing cleavage of proinsulin to insulin, POMC to alpha-MSH, and proglucagon to GLP-1; the first of a near-obligate coding haplotype (Q665E/S690T, rs6234/rs6235) associated with modest but well-replicated obesity risk across European populations

rs6757908 — EIF2AK3-AS1
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele G Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Endometriosis, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, Stress Response

Rare intronic variant in EIF2AK3-AS1, an antisense long non-coding RNA that regulates expression of EIF2AK3 (PERK), the kinase mediating the endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response; PERK pathway activation is documented in endometriotic tissue, linking ER stress to ectopic lesion survival and ovarian damage in endometriosis

rs7152376 — NFKBIA
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele C Category Psoriasis & Spondyloarthropathy Autoimmune, Psoriasis, Arthritis, Inflammation, Bone & Joint, Biologic Therapy

Regulatory variant upstream of NFKBIA that specifically elevates risk of psoriatic arthritis over skin-only psoriasis, with a 3.2-fold odds ratio distinguishing arthritic from cutaneous-only disease in psoriasis patients

Continue reading
rs725613 — CLEC16A
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele T Category Autoimmune Tolerance & T-Cell Regulation Autoimmune, Type 1 Diabetes, Multiple Sclerosis, Autophagy, T-Cell Regulation, Immune Function

Intronic variant in the autophagy regulator CLEC16A that alters thymic T-cell selection and immune tolerance, influencing risk for type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis

rs7679916 — SLC2A9
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele T Category Uric Acid & Kidney Function Gout, Uric Acid, Kidney Function, Diet, Cardiovascular

Regulatory upstream variant in the SLC2A9 promoter region; the T allele is associated with modestly elevated serum uric acid in some populations, while the C allele may confer partial protection; independent of the major coding variants at this locus and likely acts through altered GLUT9 transcriptional regulation

Continue reading
rs80358216 — HSD3B2 Trp171X
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele A Category Reproductive Hormones Steroid Hormones, Steroid Metabolism, Reproductive Health, Carrier Status, Congenital, Cortisol

Pathogenic nonsense variant introducing a premature stop codon at position 171 of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type II, abolishing conversion of Δ5-steroids to Δ4-steroids in adrenal glands and gonads; homozygotes develop severe salt-wasting congenital adrenal hyperplasia with deficiency of cortisol, aldosterone, and sex steroids.

rs841 — GCH1
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele A Category Blood Pressure & Hypertension Nitric Oxide, Endothelial Health, Cardiovascular, Hypertension, Heart Disease, Inflammation

Intronic/3'UTR GCH1 variant tagging reduced tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) synthesis capacity; the A allele associates with endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and impaired nitric oxide production, with sex-specific effects on blood pressure

Continue reading
rs9332736 — C2 28bp deletion (type I C2 deficiency)
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele D Category B-Cell Immunity & Antibody-Mediated Disease Complement System, Bacterial Clearance, Vaccination, Autoimmune, Inflammation

Frameshift deletion in C2 exon 6 causing complete complement C2 deficiency, increasing risk of encapsulated bacterial infections and SLE; most common inherited complement deficiency in Europeans
