rs1800788 — FGB -854G>A
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele T Category Coagulation & Clotting Factors Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Inflammation, Thrombosis, Atherosclerosis, Thrombophilia

Upstream promoter variant in fibrinogen beta chain that increases IL-6-driven FGB transcription, raising plasma fibrinogen levels and amplifying cardiovascular and thrombotic risk

rs1805794 — NBN E185Q
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele G Category Cancer Risk Cancer Risk, DNA Repair, Double-Strand Break Repair, Cancer Screening

Component of the MRN complex essential for DNA double-strand break repair, telomere maintenance, and cell cycle checkpoint signaling; this variant alters the BRCT domain and modestly impairs DNA damage response

rs1861494 — IFNG IFNG Interferon Gamma
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele T Category Interferon Signaling & Systemic Autoimmune Autoimmune, Inflammation, Interferon, Immune Function, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Infection Risk

Intronic IFNG variant that modulates interferon-gamma expression, with the T allele linked to elevated IFN-γ secretion, greater IBD disease severity, and altered susceptibility to tuberculosis and other immune-mediated conditions

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

rs2131925 — ANGPTL3 DOCK7/ANGPTL3 Locus Tag SNP
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele T Category Atherogenic Lipoproteins Triglycerides, Cardiovascular, Fat Metabolism, Heart Disease, LDL Cholesterol

Intronic tag SNP in the DOCK7/ANGPTL3 region; the T allele is associated with higher fasting triglycerides, higher LDL cholesterol, and elevated cardiovascular risk through reduced ANGPTL3-pathway LPL activity

rs225015 — DIO2 DIO2 rs225015
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele A Category Vitamin D Metabolism Thyroid, Hormones & Thyroid, Selenium, Micronutrients, Vitamins

3' UTR regulatory variant in DIO2 that may alter local thyroid hormone availability, influencing how the body responds to levothyroxine therapy and how well inactive T4 is converted to active T3 in tissues

rs2277339 — PRIM1 PRIM1 Asp5Ala missense variant
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele T Category Gamete Quality & DNA Repair Ovarian Reserve, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Menopause, DNA Repair, Aging

Missense variant in PRIM1 (DNA primase small subunit) that changes aspartate to alanine at position 5 of the protein; the G allele (Asp5Ala) is associated with later age at natural menopause by approximately 0.35 years per copy, implicating DNA replication priming fidelity in the rate of ovarian follicle depletion

rs2294918 — PNPLA3 PNPLA3 K434E (E434K)
Chromosome 22 Risk Allele A Category Liver Fat Fat Metabolism, Liver Health, Liver Disease, Cancer Risk, Alcohol

Second PNPLA3 missense variant that reduces hepatic PNPLA3 mRNA and protein expression by ~50%, independently associated with NAFLD and elevated liver enzymes, and modifies the risk conferred by the co-located I148M variant (rs738409).

Continue reading
rs2738058 — DEFA1A3
Chromosome 8 Risk Allele T Category Dental & Oral Health Dental & Oral Health, Innate Immunity, Inflammation, Omega-3, Immune System

Intergenic variant downstream of the DEFA1A3 alpha-defensin locus; T risk allele is associated with a 28% increased risk of periodontitis through altered neutrophil defensin availability in the gingival immune response

Continue reading
rs28937319 — SCN5A SCN5A Cardiac Sodium Channel Variant 2
Chromosome 3 Risk Allele A Category Arrhythmia & Heart Rhythm Arrhythmia, Heart Disease, Cardiovascular, Genetic Counseling, Carrier Status

Rare loss-of-function missense variant in the cardiac sodium channel Nav1.5 causing congenital sick sinus syndrome through altered channel inactivation kinetics; also reported in association with Brugada syndrome and dilated cardiomyopathy
