rs1805007 — MC1R R151C
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele T Category Skin & Eyes Pain Sensitivity, Skin Health, Anesthesia, Melanoma Risk, Red Hair, Skin Cancer, Pigmentation, Sun Sensitivity, UV Protection, Vitamin D, Oxidative Stress

Strongest "R" allele in the melanocortin-1 receptor, shifting pigment from photoprotective eumelanin to pro-oxidant pheomelanin; doubles melanoma risk and doubles non-melanoma skin cancer risk per allele

Continue reading
rs1927911 — TLR4
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele G Category Vascular Inflammation & Remodeling Inflammation, Cardiovascular, Innate Immunity, Atherosclerosis, Immune Response, Heart Disease

Intronic TLR4 variant in the innate immune receptor gene; the A allele associates with modestly reduced vascular inflammation and lower risk of nonfatal myocardial infarction, while the common GG genotype is linked to higher atherosclerotic cerebral infarction risk

Continue reading
rs1978060 — TBX1
Chromosome 22 Risk Allele G Category Innate Immunity & Infection Defense Innate Immunity, Embryo Development, Immune System, Infection Risk, T-Cell Regulation, Hearing Loss

Intronic variant in TBX1 acting as a cis-eQTL that reduces TBX1 expression and increases susceptibility to adolescent idiopathic scoliosis; TBX1 is the principal gene responsible for DiGeorge syndrome and governs pharyngeal arch and spinal musculature development

Continue reading
rs199474703 — MYL3 Arg94His (R94H)
Chromosome 3 Risk Allele T Category Cardiomyopathy & Structural Heart Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Genetic Counseling, Muscle, Congenital

Rare pathogenic missense variant in the myosin essential light chain causing hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with high penetrance in affected families

Continue reading
rs2046210 — ESR1 ESR1 rs2046210
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Endometriosis, Estrogen, Estrogen Metabolism, Reproductive Health, Women's Health, Breast Cancer

Promoter-region variant upstream of estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1) at 6q25.1; the A allele increases ESR1 transcription and is associated with elevated endometriosis risk, endometrial cancer susceptibility, and breast cancer risk across multiple populations

Continue reading
rs2230600 — PTPN13 I1522M
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele G Category TNF, NF-kB & Inflammatory Cytokines Apoptosis, Cancer Risk, Tumor Suppressor, Immune & Autoimmune, T-Cell Regulation, Inflammation

Missense variant in PTPN13 (FAP-1) converting Ile to Met at position 1522; the G allele is associated with impaired tumor-suppressive Fas-mediated apoptosis and elevated squamous cell carcinoma risk

Continue reading
rs2249891 — ABCA1
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele G Category Cholesterol & Lipoproteins Cholesterol, Cardiovascular, Fat Metabolism, HDL Cholesterol

Intronic ABCA1 variant associated with lower HDL-cholesterol susceptibility and coronary heart disease risk at one of the most replicated lipid GWAS loci

Continue reading
rs2256774 — IL2RA
Chromosome 10 Risk Allele T Category Autoimmune Tolerance & T-Cell Regulation Autoimmune, Immune & Autoimmune, Inflammation, Psoriasis, Skin, Multiple Sclerosis

Intronic IL2RA variant independently associated with psoriasis susceptibility

Continue reading
rs2268361 — FSHR FSHR Intronic Variant (c.669-5590)
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele C Category Fertility & Ovarian Function Fertility, Reproductive Health, Ovarian Reserve, PCOS, Gonadotropins, Hormones

Intronic variant in the FSHR gene associated with PCOS susceptibility and FSH level modulation; the C allele tags a GWAS-identified risk haplotype that elevates basal FSH and increases PCOS risk, while the T allele is protective and associated with normal FSH levels
