rs2303428 — MSH2
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele C Category Gamete Quality & DNA Repair Mismatch Repair, DNA Repair, Genomic Stability, Cancer Risk, RNA Splicing, Chemotherapy

Splice-region variant in MSH2 (c.2006-6T>C) located 6 bases upstream of exon 13 in the mismatch repair gene; the C allele is associated with altered mismatch repair expression and modestly elevated cancer prognosis signals across multiple tumour types; classified benign for Lynch syndrome

rs2968863 — KCNH2
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele T Category Arrhythmia & Heart Rhythm Arrhythmia, Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Genetic Counseling

Intergenic variant near KCNH2 (hERG potassium channel) at 7q36.1 that shortens QTc interval and confers ~2.4x increased risk of early-onset lone atrial fibrillation in homozygous T allele carriers

Continue reading
rs10456100 — KCNK5
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele T Category Neurology & Cognition Migraine, Neurological Risk, Pain Sensitivity, Brain Health, Chronic Pain, Neuroinflammation

Intronic variant near KCNK5 that reduces TASK2 potassium channel expression and increases migraine susceptibility; the T allele is associated with lower KCNK5 expression.

rs104894142 — CYP17A1 R362C (Arg362Cys)
Chromosome 10 Risk Allele A Category Reproductive Hormones Fertility, Reproductive Health, Steroid Hormones, Hormones, Congenital, Genetic Counseling

Pathogenic CYP17A1 missense variant causing combined 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency; homozygotes lose all sex steroid and cortisol synthesis, developing hypertension, hypokalemia, and absent puberty; heterozygous carriers are asymptomatic but carry reproductive risk

Continue reading
rs1050450 — GPX1 Pro198Leu
Chromosome 3 Risk Allele A Category Methylation & Detox Detoxification, Oxidative Stress, Selenium, Antioxidants, Cardiovascular, Glutathione, Glutathione Cycle, NRF2 Target

Selenium-dependent antioxidant enzyme that neutralizes hydrogen peroxide; the Leu variant reduces enzyme activity and responsiveness to selenium

Continue reading
rs10519177 — FBN1
Chromosome 15 Risk Allele G Category Cardiomyopathy & Structural Heart Cardiovascular, Connective Tissue, Heart Disease, Extracellular Matrix, Inflammation

Intronic FBN1 variant that requires two copies of the G allele to impair fibrillin-1's TGF-β1 sequestration, elevating aortic dissection risk in a recessive pattern

Continue reading
rs1057910 — CYP2C9 *3
Chromosome 10 Risk Allele C Category Pharmacogenomics Drug Metabolism, Warfarin, Pain Medication, Cannabis, Endocannabinoid

No-function CYP2C9 variant with major warfarin implications

Continue reading
rs10889677 — IL23R
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele A Category IBD & Mucosal Immunity Autoimmune, Inflammation, IBD, Arthritis, Eye Health, Immune & Autoimmune

3' UTR and intronic IL23R variant disrupting Let-7e/Let-7f miRNA binding — the A allele elevates IL-23 receptor expression and is associated with ankylosing spondylitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility; the C allele was independently associated with Graves' ophthalmopathy in a Caucasian cohort
