rs2277339 — PRIM1 PRIM1 Asp5Ala missense variant
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele T Category Gamete Quality & DNA Repair Ovarian Reserve, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Menopause, DNA Repair, Aging

Missense variant in PRIM1 (DNA primase small subunit) that changes aspartate to alanine at position 5 of the protein; the G allele (Asp5Ala) is associated with later age at natural menopause by approximately 0.35 years per copy, implicating DNA replication priming fidelity in the rate of ovarian follicle depletion

rs2911463 — PIEZO1
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele G Category Arrhythmia & Heart Rhythm Cardiovascular, Endothelial Health, Heart Disease, Blood Pressure, Inflammation, Exercise, Venous Health

Intronic variant in PIEZO1, the endothelial mechanosensory ion channel that senses blood flow shear stress; the G allele is associated with elevated varicose vein risk in genome-wide studies of over 800,000 individuals

rs10405121 — CACNA1A
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele G Category Neurology & Cognition Migraine, Calcium, Brain Health, Pain Sensitivity, Neurological Risk, Cardiovascular

Common intronic variant in CACNA1A — the P/Q-type calcium channel gene mutated in familial hemiplegic migraine — that reaches genome-wide significance for migraine with aura; the G (reference) allele confers typical susceptibility while the A allele is mildly protective

rs1045642 — ABCB1 C3435T
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele A Category Pharmacogenomics Drug Metabolism, Pharmacogenomics, Immunosuppressants, Cardiovascular, Chemotherapy

Synonymous variant in P-glycoprotein affecting drug efflux pump expression and hundreds of substrate drugs

rs104894008 — GCK Gly261Arg (MODY2)
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele T Category Blood Sugar & Diabetes Diabetes, Insulin, Metabolic, Genetic Counseling, Carrier Status, Energy Metabolism

Pathogenic glucokinase missense variant that nearly abolishes enzyme activity, causing autosomal dominant maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 2 (MODY2) in heterozygous carriers and permanent neonatal diabetes when homozygous

rs104894141 — CYP17A1 W17X
Chromosome 10 Risk Allele T Category Reproductive Hormones Steroid Hormones, Steroid Metabolism, Hypertension, Reproductive Health, Carrier Status, Congenital

Rare pathogenic nonsense variant in CYP17A1 causing complete abolition of 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase activity; homozygotes develop the full 17α-hydroxylase deficiency phenotype (hypertension, hypokalemia, absent puberty, low cortisol), while heterozygous carriers are clinically unaffected but carry a CYP17A1 loss-of-function allele relevant to reproductive planning.

rs104894664 — TTR Ala45Thr (A25T)
Chromosome 18 Risk Allele A Category Cardiomyopathy & Structural Heart Amyloidosis, Cardiovascular, Neurodegeneration, Neuropathy, Genetic Counseling, Inflammation

Rare pathogenic TTR missense variant causing hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with predominantly central nervous system and oculoleptomeningeal involvement

Continue reading
rs1049742 — AOC1
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele T Category Methylation & Detox Histamine, Food Sensitivity, Detoxification, Methylation & Detox, Gut Health

Missense variant in the diamine oxidase enzyme that contributes to reduced histamine clearance from dietary sources

Continue reading
rs10758669 — JAK2
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele C Category IBD & Mucosal Immunity Immune & Gut, Gut Barrier, IBD, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis

Intergenic variant near JAK2 that increases JAK2 expression and JAK-STAT signaling, disrupting intestinal barrier function and increasing IBD susceptibility

Continue reading
rs10786831 — SORCS3 SORCS3 Depression Variant
Chromosome 10 Risk Allele G Category Mood & Behavior Depression, Mood, Neuroplasticity, Brain Health, Anxiety, Neurotransmitters

Intronic variant in the neurotrophin sorting receptor SORCS3, the top GWAS hit for major depression in the Howard et al. 2019 meta-analysis of 807,553 individuals
