Deep intronic FBN1 variant associated with larger ascending aortic dimensions and elevated risk of thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection through altered fibrillin-1 microfibril function and dysregulated TGF-β sequestration in the aortic wall
Common tyrosinase variant affecting melanin production, skin pigmentation, tanning ability, freckling, and melanoma risk
Beta-2 adrenergic receptor variant affecting receptor downregulation, exercise capacity, beta-agonist drug response, and cardiovascular function
Protective missense variant that reduces LPL inhibition, lowering fasting triglycerides in T-allele carriers
3'UTR variant in ABCG1 that may reduce transporter expression, impairing cholesterol efflux to HDL and increasing susceptibility to coronary artery disease.
A common 3'UTR variant in the liver-expressed adiponectin receptor 2 gene; the T allele is associated with reduced waist circumference and lower colorectal and gastric cancer risk, while the reference C allele is linked to higher liver enzyme elevations in type 2 diabetic subjects.
Intronic variant strongly associated with elevated lipoprotein(a) levels and significantly increased risk of coronary artery disease and aortic valve stenosis
Missense variant in PRRC2A (HLA-B associated transcript) linked to age at natural menopause through immune-mediated oocyte depletion; the A allele may be associated with earlier menopause onset
Missense variant in circadian clock gene PER3 associated with morning chronotype preference and earlier diurnal timing
3'UTR variant in the beta-defensin 1 gene that disrupts a microRNA binding site, reducing DEFB1 expression and increasing susceptibility to periodontitis and dental caries
