rs121434290 — SLC39A4 SLC39A4 p.Asn106Lys
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele T Category Iron & Mineral Transport Zinc, Minerals, Micronutrients, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling, Gut Health

Pathogenic missense variant in the ZIP4 intestinal zinc transporter; homozygosity causes acrodermatitis enteropathica, a rare but fully treatable zinc malabsorption disorder

rs1217414 — PTPN22
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele A Category Autoimmune Tolerance & T-Cell Regulation Autoimmune, Immune System, Psoriasis, T-Cell Regulation, Arthritis, Immune & Autoimmune

Intronic PTPN22 variant independently associated with psoriasis and ankylosing spondylitis, operating through a distinct mechanism from the established R620W risk allele

rs121909569 — SERPINC1 Ser148Pro
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele G Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Blood Clotting, Thrombophilia, Cardiovascular, Blood Thinners, Genetic Counseling, Women's Health

Likely pathogenic missense variant in antithrombin III; the G allele converts Ser148 to Pro, causing type II pleiotropic antithrombin deficiency that reduces both anticoagulant activity and antigen levels, substantially elevating lifetime VTE risk in heterozygous carriers

rs121917746 — SPR Q119X
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele T Category Vitamins & Nutrient Absorption Neurotransmitters, Dopamine, Serotonin, Carrier Status, Neurological Risk, Micronutrients

Nonsense variant in sepiapterin reductase that abolishes BH4 biosynthesis, causing dopamine and serotonin deficiency in the brain; homozygosity leads to DOPA-responsive dystonia (SPR deficiency, OMIM

rs12191877 — HLA-C Tag for *06:02
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele T Category Psoriasis & Spondyloarthropathy Immune & Autoimmune, Psoriasis, Autoimmunity, HLA, Skin, Biologic Therapy, Autoimmune, Skin Health, Immune & Gut

Tag SNP for HLA-C*06:02, the strongest genetic risk factor for psoriasis, determining disease phenotype and predicting differential response to biologic therapy

Continue reading
rs12350739 — BNC2 Regulatory variant
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele A Category Skin & Eyes Skin Pigmentation, Freckling, UV Sensitivity, Skin Cancer, Cancer Risk, Sun Sensitivity

Intergenic enhancer variant controlling BNC2 expression in melanocytes; determines pigmentation saturation and freckling tendency with implications for UV sensitivity and skin cancer risk

Continue reading
rs1260326 — GCKR P446L
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele T Category Liver Fat Triglycerides, Fat Metabolism, Insulin, Cardiovascular, Diet, Liver Health

Coding GCKR variant (Pro446Leu) that directly reduces GCKRP sensitivity to fructose-6-phosphate, constitutively activating hepatic glucokinase and producing the characteristic trade-off of lower fasting glucose and insulin resistance against higher triglycerides, CRP, and NAFLD risk

Continue reading
rs12678919 — LPL
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele A Category Triglycerides & Fatty Acids Triglycerides, HDL Cholesterol, Fat Metabolism, Cardiovascular, Lipid Metabolism

Intergenic variant 19 kb downstream of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) that tags a regulatory region affecting LPL expression; the rare G allele is associated with meaningfully lower triglycerides and higher HDL cholesterol.

Continue reading
rs13412535 — SERPINE2
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele A Category Coagulation & Clotting Factors Thrombosis, Blood Clotting, Fibrinolysis, Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Thrombophilia

Intronic regulatory variant in SERPINE2 that modulates expression of Protease Nexin-1, the most potent tissue thrombin inhibitor, shifting fibrinolytic balance and elevating venous thromboembolism risk

Continue reading
rs137853964 — LDLR Val827Ile / Val827Phe
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele A Category Atherogenic Lipoproteins Cholesterol, LDL Cholesterol, Cardiovascular, Genetic Counseling, Heart Disease, Lipid Metabolism

LDLR missense variant at position 827 within the cytoplasmic NPXY internalization motif; classified as uncertain significance for familial hypercholesterolemia, with conflicting functional and population evidence — the more common G>A change (Val827Ile) shows no LDL uptake impairment in functional assays, while the rarer G>T change (Val827Phe) has been reported in FH patients
