rs61752717 — MEFV M694V
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele C Category TNF, NF-kB & Inflammatory Cytokines Autoimmune, Inflammation, Amyloidosis, Carrier Status, Innate Immunity, Arthritis

The most common and clinically severe MEFV mutation, converting methionine to valine at codon 694 of pyrin; homozygous carriers typically develop full familial Mediterranean fever with early onset, frequent attacks, and high amyloidosis risk if untreated with colchicine

rs6235 — PCSK1 PCSK1 S690T (Ser690Thr)
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele G Category Appetite & Obesity Insulin, Obesity, Appetite, Pancreatic Beta Cell, Energy Metabolism, Metabolic

Missense variant encoding the Ser690Thr substitution in the C-terminal domain of prohormone convertase 1/3 (PC1/3); paired with rs6234 (Q665E) in near-complete LD to form the Q665E-S690T haplotype that reduces PC1/3 enzymatic efficiency, impairing proinsulin-to-insulin conversion and POMC processing to satiety peptides, and conferring modest obesity risk

rs71575922 — SYNE1 SYNE1 Endometriosis Pain Subphenotype Variant
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele G Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Endometriosis, Pain Management, Chronic Pain, Women's Health, Reproductive Health, Fertility

An intronic variant in SYNE1 (Nesprin-1) at the 6q25.1 locus, first identified as a genome-wide significant endometriosis locus in the 2017 Sapkota meta-analysis and confirmed in the 2023 Rahmioglu mega-GWAS; the G allele is associated with endometriosis risk overall (OR ~1.11) and strongly enriched for pain subphenotypes including dysmenorrhea (OR ~1.49) and dyspareunia (OR ~2.07), implicating a neuromechanical rather than purely hormonal pathway

rs72634030 — RABEP1
Chromosome 17 Risk Allele T Category Autoimmune Tolerance & T-Cell Regulation Autoimmune, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Immune & Autoimmune, Innate Immunity, Inflammation, Autoimmunity

Intronic RABEP1 variant associated with rheumatoid arthritis risk, acting through endosomal trafficking and autophagy pathways that regulate antigen processing in immune cells

rs7540214 — IFNLR1 IFNLR1 variant
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele T Category Psoriasis & Spondyloarthropathy Interferon, Psoriasis, Arthritis, Immune & Autoimmune, Joints, Bone & Joint

Intronic variant in the interferon lambda receptor 1 gene that elevates PsA risk by amplifying IL-29/IFN-lambda signaling in synovial tissue, marking those with skin psoriasis who are at elevated risk for progressing to joint disease

rs77924615 — UMOD PDILT-UMOD regulatory variant
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele G Category Uric Acid & Kidney Function Kidney Disease, Kidney Function, Hypertension, Blood Pressure, Cardiovascular, Chronic Kidney Disease

Intronic regulatory variant physically located in PDILT that controls uromodulin (Tamm-Horsfall protein / UMOD) expression — the strongest genetic predictor of longitudinal kidney function decline in the general population. Catalog gene attribution is UMOD (the regulatory target and clinically relevant gene); physical location is PDILT (adjacent gene in the same LD block).

rs858518 — SHBG SHBG intronic regulatory variant
Chromosome 17 Risk Allele A Category Reproductive Hormones Testosterone, Estrogen, Fertility, Reproductive Health, PCOS, Insulin Resistance, Hormones

Intronic variant within the SHBG gene that participates in a haplotype (with rs727428) lowering circulating sex hormone-binding globulin levels, increasing bioavailable testosterone and estradiol; lower SHBG is linked to PCOS susceptibility, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes risk, and female VTE risk mediated by estradiol

rs9332739 — C2 E318D
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele G Category B-Cell Immunity & Antibody-Mediated Disease Eye Health, Complement System, Inflammation, Aging, Autoimmune

Missense variant in complement component C2 forming a protective haplotype with CFB that reduces age-related macular degeneration risk by ~45-50%

Continue reading
rs16947078 — TBX21 TBX21 T-bet asthma variant
Chromosome 17 Risk Allele G Category Allergy & Atopic Disease Autoimmune, Asthma, Immune Function, T-Cell Regulation, Inflammation, Lung Health

Intergenic regulatory variant near TBX21 associated with allergic asthma susceptibility; G allele homozygosity carries markedly elevated asthma risk through reduced T-bet-driven Th1 immune tone

Continue reading
rs17651213 — MAPT Exon 3 Splice Regulator
Chromosome 17 Risk Allele G Category Neurology & Cognition Neurological Risk, Parkinson's, Dementia, Tau Pathology, Brain Health, Aging

Intronic MAPT variant that directly regulates tau exon 3 splicing via differential hnRNP F/Q binding; the G allele (H1 haplotype) reduces exon 3 inclusion, elevating 4-repeat tau isoforms and increasing risk for Parkinson's disease, PSP, and corticobasal degeneration
