rs1799998 — CYP11B2 -344C>T
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele A Category Blood Pressure & Hypertension Cardiovascular, Blood Pressure, Salt Sensitivity, Hypertension, Steroid Metabolism

Promoter variant in aldosterone synthase increasing CYP11B2 transcription, associated with elevated aldosterone and higher blood pressure

rs182506368 — SLC39A4 SLC39A4 p.Ala99Thr
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele T Category Vitamins & Nutrient Absorption Zinc, Minerals, Micronutrients, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling, Skin Health

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

Continue reading
rs1883832 — CD40 Kozak -1C>T
Chromosome 20 Risk Allele C Category B-Cell Immunity & Antibody-Mediated Disease Immune & Autoimmune, B-Cell Signaling, Thyroid, Autoimmune, Inflammation

Kozak sequence variant at position −1 of the CD40 start codon — the C allele boosts translational efficiency, producing ~30% more CD40 protein and increasing susceptibility to Graves' disease; the T allele reduces CD40 expression and independently elevates risk for multiple sclerosis and Crohn's disease

rs2004640 — IRF5 G198T
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele T Category Interferon Signaling & Systemic Autoimmune Immune & Autoimmune, Inflammation, Interferon, Lupus, Arthritis, Connective Tissue

Intronic variant creating alternative splice site that increases autoimmune disease risk

rs200482978 — SLC39A4
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele T Category Iron & Mineral Transport Zinc, Minerals, Micronutrients, Digestive Health, Skin Health, Carrier Status

Pathogenic nonsense variant in the intestinal zinc transporter ZIP4, creating a premature stop codon (p.Trp401Ter) that abolishes ZIP4 function and causes autosomal recessive acrodermatitis enteropathica when inherited biallelically; heterozygous carriers retain adequate zinc absorption under normal conditions but warrant monitoring during high-demand states

rs2066865 — FGG 10034C>T
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele A Category Coagulation & Clotting Factors Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Thrombophilia, Thrombosis, Venous Health, Inflammation

3' region variant in the fibrinogen gamma chain gene that shifts the gamma/gamma-prime isoform ratio, altering clot structure and increasing venous thromboembolism risk

Continue reading
rs2078267 — SLC22A11
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele C Category Uric Acid & Kidney Function Uric Acid, Gout, Diet, Cardiovascular

Intronic variant in the OAT4 renal urate transporter that modulates uric acid reabsorption in the proximal tubule, with the C allele raising serum urate and increasing gout risk especially in diuretic users

Continue reading
rs225011 — DIO2
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele C Category Vitamin D Metabolism Thyroid, Hormones & Thyroid, Autoimmune, Micronutrients, Metabolism

Intronic DIO2 variant nominally associated with Graves' disease susceptibility and early-onset type 2 diabetes; may influence DIO2 expression in a gene carrying the key T4-to-T3 conversion enzyme

Continue reading
rs2279744 — MDM2 SNP309 T>G
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele G Category Cancer Risk Cancer Risk, p53 Pathway, Tumor Suppressor, Cancer Screening

Regulatory variant in the MDM2 promoter that increases Sp1 transcription factor binding, raising MDM2 levels and accelerating p53 degradation — associated with earlier age of cancer onset

Continue reading
rs2288904 — SLC44A2 R154Q
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele G Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Thrombosis, Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Inflammation, Innate Immunity, Blood Thinners, Thrombophilia

Missense variant that impairs platelet-neutrophil binding; carriers of the Q154 (A) allele have ~15–30% reduced VTE risk
