rs174535 — MYRF
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele C Category Triglycerides & Fatty Acids Omega-3, Fat Metabolism, Cardiovascular, Diet, Vitamins

Missense variant in the MYRF/FADS gene cluster region on chromosome 11 associated with circulating omega-3 PUFA and DHA levels; the C allele is linked to lower serum omega-3 and DHA concentrations, likely through linkage disequilibrium with the nearby FADS1/FADS2 desaturase cluster

rs17728338 — TNIP1 TNIP1/ABIN1 variant
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele A Category Psoriasis & Spondyloarthropathy Autoimmune, Inflammation, Psoriasis, Skin, Skin Health, Anti-TNF Biologics

Intergenic regulatory variant near TNIP1 whose A allele reduces ABIN1-mediated NF-kB braking, conferring OR=1.69 for psoriasis per allele and substantially elevated generalized pustular psoriasis risk in homozygous carriers

rs179247 — TSHR TSHR Intron 1 Graves' Disease Risk Variant
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele A Category Autoimmune Tolerance & T-Cell Regulation Autoimmune, Thyroid, Hormones & Thyroid, Immune & Autoimmune, T-Cell Regulation, Inflammation

Intronic regulatory variant in TSHR intron 1; the A allele reduces thymic expression of the TSH receptor, impairing central tolerance to thyroid antigens and increasing susceptibility to Graves' disease — the most common autoimmune cause of hyperthyroidism

rs1801020 — F12 46C>T
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele A Category Coagulation & Clotting Factors Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Thrombosis, Heart Disease, Inflammation, Thrombophilia

5' UTR variant that reduces Factor XII translation efficiency, lowering plasma FXII levels and reducing contact activation coagulation

rs1801198 — TCN2 Pro259Arg (C776G)
Chromosome 22 Risk Allele G Category Vitamins & Nutrient Absorption Vitamin B12, B Vitamins, Methylation, Homocysteine, Neuropathy

Transcobalamin II variant affecting cellular delivery of vitamin B12 via holotranscobalamin binding efficiency

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 triples non-melanoma skin cancer risk per allele

Continue reading
rs1898830 — TLR2
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele A Category Innate Immunity & Infection Defense TLR Signaling, Autoimmune, Inflammation, Bacterial Sensing, Cardiovascular, Infectious Disease

Intronic TLR2 variant that modulates innate immune signaling intensity; G allele reduces TLR2 pathway activity and is protective against tuberculosis and periodontitis, while the common A allele sustains higher TLR2 activation linked to cardiovascular risk markers and autoimmune inflammation

Continue reading
rs201038679 — ATP7B P992L
Chromosome 13 Risk Allele A Category Iron & Mineral Transport Metal Metabolism, Liver Disease, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling, Minerals, Liver

Pathogenic missense variant in the copper transporter ATP7B; heterozygous carriers are asymptomatic but can pass Wilson disease to children if their partner also carries an ATP7B pathogenic variant

Continue reading
rs2018643 — SLC2A9 SLC2A9 rs2018643
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele T Category Uric Acid & Kidney Function Gout, Uric Acid, Kidney Function, Cardiovascular, Diet, Minerals

Intronic SLC2A9 variant at the major urate-transporter locus on chromosome 4; the T allele tags a haplotype associated with reduced renal urate clearance and higher serum uric acid, while the C allele is protective; the variant contributes to the multi-signal genetic architecture of the SLC2A9 locus — the single largest genetic determinant of serum urate in humans

Continue reading
rs2043211 — CARD8 C10X
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele T Category TNF, NF-kB & Inflammatory Cytokines Inflammation, Autoimmune, Innate Immunity, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Arthritis, Immune Response

Truncating variant in the NLRP3 inflammasome brake that abolishes CARD8's caspase-1 inhibitory function, elevating IL-1β and IL-18 production and modifying susceptibility to autoimmune and inflammatory conditions
