rs6454674 — CNR1 Near gene (SNP3)
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele G Category Mood & Behavior Addiction, Endocannabinoid, Neurotransmitters, Brain Health, Dopamine, Cannabis

Intronic variant in the cannabinoid receptor 1 gene that modulates substance dependence vulnerability through a gene-gene interaction with rs806368; the G allele increases risk for drug and alcohol dependence and sits in a completely independent LD block from the rs806368/rs1049353 haplotype

rs6922269 — MTHFD1L
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Coronary Artery Disease & Atherosclerosis Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Folate, B Vitamins, Homocysteine, Methylation

Intronic variant in the mitochondrial folate enzyme MTHFD1L, associated with increased coronary artery disease risk and post-ACS cardiovascular mortality through impaired one-carbon unit supply

rs705379 — PON1 PON1 promoter -108C>T
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele A Category Vascular Inflammation & Remodeling Cardiovascular, HDL Cholesterol, Oxidative Stress, Antioxidants, Atherosclerosis, Liver Health

Promoter polymorphism that controls PON1 gene expression — the T allele (A on the plus strand) reduces transcription factor binding, halving arylesterase activity and lowering HDL-mediated antioxidant protection against LDL oxidation.

rs7530511 — IL23R Leu310Pro
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele T Category IBD & Mucosal Immunity Autoimmune, Autoimmunity, Thyroid, Inflammation, Immune System, Immune & Autoimmune

Missense variant in the IL-23 receptor that substitutes leucine for proline at position 310; the rare leucine allele (T) is associated with susceptibility to Graves' disease and rheumatoid arthritis through altered IL-23/Th17 immune signaling

rs7566605 — INSIG2
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele C Category Appetite & Obesity Obesity, Fat Metabolism, Diet, Cholesterol, Insulin, Cardiovascular

Upstream regulatory variant near INSIG2 that influences lipogenesis control and has been associated with BMI, subcutaneous fat accumulation, and obesity risk in multiple populations

rs80338701 — PMM2 F119L
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele A Category Metabolic Enzymes & Rare Disorders Congenital, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling, Metabolic, Neurological Risk, Micronutrients

Second most common pathogenic PMM2 allele (p.Phe119Leu); in compound heterozygosity with R141H produces the classic PMM2-CDG phenotype with cerebellar hypoplasia, intellectual disability, and multi-organ glycosylation failure; homozygosity is likely lethal

rs9383935 — CCDC170
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele T Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Endometriosis, Estrogen, Breast Cancer, Cancer Risk, Women's Health, Reproductive Health

3' UTR variant in CCDC170 at the 6q25.1 estrogen-signaling locus; the T allele disrupts a miR-27a binding site, reducing CCDC170 expression and increasing breast cancer risk (OR 1.38 in Chinese women); the same locus independently confers endometriosis susceptibility

Continue reading
rs1802059 — MTRR
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele A Category Methylation & Detox Methylation, B Vitamins, Homocysteine, Cardiovascular, Folate

Synonymous MTRR variant (c.1911G>A) associated with congenital heart disease risk in offspring and maternal carriers, likely through regulatory effects on B12 recycling capacity

Continue reading
rs1805010 — IL4R Ile75Val
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele G Category Allergy & Atopic Disease Asthma, Immune Response, Inflammation, JAK-STAT Signaling, Biologic Therapy, Lung Health

Missense variant in the extracellular domain of the IL-4 receptor alpha chain that increases IL-4 signaling sensitivity; the Val75 (G) allele is found in 80% of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis patients and elevates IgE-driven Th2 immune responses in asthma and atopic disease

Continue reading
rs193922916 — APP A673V (Aβ A2V)
Chromosome 21 Risk Allele A Category Neurology & Cognition Alzheimer's, Neurodegeneration, Cognitive Decline, Amyloidosis, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling

Recessive pathogenic APP missense variant causing early-onset Alzheimer's disease in homozygotes; heterozygous carriers are unaffected due to a dominant-negative inhibition of amyloid aggregation
