rs11079788 — TBX21 TBX21 Regulatory Variant
Chromosome 17 Risk Allele C Category Allergy & Atopic Disease Asthma, T-Cell Regulation, Inflammation, Autoimmune, Immune Response, Skin Health

Intronic regulatory variant in TBX21 that influences T-bet expression and Th1/Th2 immune balance; the minor T allele is associated with elevated regulatory T-cell markers and reduced early-childhood atopic dermatitis risk, while the common C allele is linked to lower CD4+CD25+ Treg frequency and higher susceptibility to atopic disease

rs11212617 — ATM
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele A Category Longevity & Aging Longevity, Aging, DNA Repair, Diabetes, Insulin, Autophagy

Intronic variant near the ATM gene affecting metformin's activation of AMPK; the C allele confers improved glycemic response to metformin and links the DNA damage response pathway to longevity-relevant AMPK-mTOR signaling

Continue reading
rs1144566 — RGS16 RGS16 H137R
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele C Category Hormones & Sleep Chronotype, Circadian, Sleep, Hormones, Brain Health

Missense variant in RGS16 that substitutes histidine for arginine at position 137 of the G-protein signaling regulator expressed in the suprachiasmatic nucleus

Continue reading
rs116862713 — PRKAB1
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele T Category Fat Storage & Energy Diabetes, Insulin Resistance, Energy Metabolism, Metabolic Health

Rare AMPK beta-1 subunit variant linking central energy sensing to shared migraine and type 2 diabetes susceptibility

Continue reading
rs11842874 — MCF2L
Chromosome 13 Risk Allele A Category Fitness & Body Joints, Injury Risk, Inflammation, Fitness, Cartilage, Bone & Joint, Chronic Pain

Intronic variant in MCF2L that acts as a synovial eQTL — A allele carriers have higher MCF2L expression in joint tissue and elevated osteoarthritis risk across large joints

Continue reading
rs119103258 — PYGM
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele G Category Metabolic Enzymes & Rare Disorders Muscle, Energy Metabolism, Exercise, Carrier Status, Metabolic, Genetic Counseling

Pathogenic missense variant in muscle glycogen phosphorylase causing post-translational protein loss; homozygous or compound heterozygous carriers develop McArdle disease (glycogen storage disease type V), the second most common PYGM pathogenic allele in Spanish populations

Continue reading
rs121434291 — SLC39A4 SLC39A4 zinc transporter variant
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele T Category Iron & Mineral Transport Zinc, Micronutrients, Carrier Status, Minerals, Metal Metabolism, Genetic Counseling

Pathogenic missense variant in the ZIP4 intestinal zinc transporter causing hereditary acrodermatitis enteropathica when homozygous; heterozygotes are asymptomatic carriers

Continue reading
rs121918383 — APOB APOB Arg1333Ter
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele A Category Cholesterol & Lipoproteins Fat Metabolism, Cholesterol, Cardiovascular, Liver Health, LDL Cholesterol, Carrier Status

Nonsense mutation in APOB creating a premature stop codon at position 1333, truncating apolipoprotein B-100 to ~30% of its normal length and causing familial hypobetalipoproteinemia with very low LDL cholesterol; pathogenic for FHBL
