rs30187 — ERAP1 K528R
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele T Category Psoriasis & Spondyloarthropathy Immune System, Autoimmune, Inflammation, Psoriasis, Arthritis, MHC Antigen Presentation

Missense variant reducing ERAP1 aminopeptidase activity, increasing ankylosing spondylitis and psoriasis risk through altered MHC class I peptide trimming — effect contingent on HLA-B27 and HLA-C*06:02 carrier status

rs3126085 — FLG
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele A Category Skin & Eyes Skin Health, Inflammation, Immune System, Skin, Hair & Pigmentation, Skin & Eyes

Intronic regulatory variant in the filaggrin gene locus that reduces FLG expression and increases atopic dermatitis (eczema) susceptibility; A allele is markedly more common in East Asian and African populations

rs3131379 — MSH5
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Interferon Signaling & Systemic Autoimmune Immune & Autoimmune, Lupus, Interferon, Autoimmune, Inflammation, Connective Tissue

Intronic variant in the HLA class III region near MSH5 associated with lupus susceptibility, IFN-α regulation, and epistatic interactions with IRF5 and CTLA4

rs33972313 — SLC23A1 Val264Met
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele T Category Vitamins & Nutrient Absorption Vitamins, Vitamin C, Diet, Micronutrients

Primary intestinal and renal vitamin C transporter — variant reduces ascorbate absorption and reabsorption efficiency

Continue reading
rs369504169 — PROC p.Arg42His (c.125G>A)
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele A Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Thrombophilia, Thrombosis, Blood Thinners, Genetic Counseling

Rare missense variant in the PROC gene encoding protein C; the A allele substitutes histidine for arginine at position 42, partially impairing anticoagulant function and increasing venous thromboembolism risk in heterozygous carriers

Continue reading
rs3738919 — ITGAV ITGAV integrin alpha-V variant
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele C Category B-Cell Immunity & Antibody-Mediated Disease Autoimmune, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Angiogenesis, Inflammation, Bone & Joint

Intronic ITGAV variant associated with rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility in a family-based European study, though larger meta-analyses have not replicated the association; may tag a regulatory haplotype affecting integrin-mediated immune cell trafficking and synovial angiogenesis

Continue reading
rs3754777 — STK39
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele T Category Blood Pressure & Hypertension Hypertension, Blood Pressure, Kidney Function, Cardiovascular, Salt Sensitivity

Intronic STK39 variant that increases SPAK kinase expression, raising blood pressure through excess sodium reabsorption.
