rs2317676 — ITGB3
Chromosome 17 Risk Allele G Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Thrombosis, Blood Clotting, Aspirin Response, Pharmacogenomics, Cardiovascular, Cerebrovascular, Thrombophilia

3' UTR variant in the platelet glycoprotein IIIa gene (ITGB3/GPIIIa) that disrupts a microRNA-binding site, increasing ITGB3 expression and platelet activation; the G allele is associated with elevated risk of ischemic stroke outcomes and adverse events on antiplatelet therapy through synergistic platelet receptor gene interactions

rs236114 — MCM8
Chromosome 20 Risk Allele T Category Gamete Quality & DNA Repair Ovarian Reserve, Menopause, Fertility, Reproductive Health, DNA Repair, Double-Strand Break Repair

Intronic variant in MCM8 (minichromosome maintenance 8 helicase) on chromosome 20p12.3; each A allele is associated with approximately 0.5 years of delayed age at natural menopause, suggesting that reduced MCM8-mediated DNA repair activity modestly accelerates ovarian follicle depletion in people carrying the common T allele

rs2414095 — CYP19A1
Chromosome 15 Risk Allele A Category Reproductive Hormones Aromatase, Estrogen, Male Fertility, Fertility, Reproductive Health, Steroid Hormones

Intronic variant in the aromatase gene associated with lower circulating estradiol and higher FSH levels; the A allele reduces aromatase activity and has been linked to higher sperm counts in men and lower bone mineral density

rs25487 — XRCC1 R399Q
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele T Category Cancer Risk Cancer Risk, DNA Repair, Base Excision Repair, Smoking Interaction, Cancer Screening

Base excision repair scaffold protein that coordinates repair of oxidative DNA damage and single-strand breaks; the Gln variant reduces repair efficiency at the PARP-binding domain

rs28929454 — SERPINA1
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele A Category B-Cell Immunity & Antibody-Mediated Disease Protease Inhibitor, Autoimmune, Inflammation, Lung Health, Autoimmunity

SERPINA1 intronic variant strongly associated with elevated mortality in ANCA-associated vasculitis patients; in tight linkage disequilibrium with the regulatory risk variant rs7151526

rs35929607 — STK39
Chromosome 2 Risk Allele G Category Blood Pressure & Hypertension Blood Pressure, Hypertension, Salt Sensitivity, Kidney Function, Cardiovascular, Renal Function

Intronic variant in the SPAK kinase gene that has been studied for association with blood pressure regulation through the WNK-SPAK-NCC sodium reabsorption axis

rs3733585 — SLC2A9
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele A Category Uric Acid & Kidney Function Gout, Uric Acid, Kidney Function, Diet, Cardiovascular

Intronic SLC2A9 variant (coding-strand T/C) within the major renal urate transporter locus; the A allele (coding-strand T) is in linkage disequilibrium with known urate-raising haplotypes at SLC2A9 and is associated with modestly elevated serum uric acid through reduced renal urate clearance efficiency; the G allele (coding-strand C) tags the urate-lowering haplotype

Continue reading
rs397508072 — KCNQ1 Q356X
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele T Category Arrhythmia & Heart Rhythm Arrhythmia, Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Genetic Counseling, Carrier Status

Nonsense mutation in the cardiac IKs potassium channel causing premature protein truncation; heterozygous carriers develop Romano-Ward long QT syndrome type 1 with risk of life-threatening arrhythmia, while homozygous carriers develop Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome with congenital deafness

Continue reading
rs4253623 — PPARA
Chromosome 22 Risk Allele G Category Atherogenic Lipoproteins Cardiovascular, Inflammation, Fat Metabolism, Heart Disease, Lipid Metabolism

Intronic PPARA variant whose minor G allele has been associated with modest myocardial infarction risk and may influence the gene's anti-inflammatory transcriptional activity in vascular tissue

Continue reading
rs4752 — GC GC rs4752
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele G Category Vitamin D Metabolism Vitamin D, Micronutrients, Bone Health, Immune Function, Autoimmune, Mineral Metabolism

Synonymous variant in vitamin D binding protein that tags distinct GC haplotypes, contributing to VDBP isoform diversity and influencing immune function, uveitis risk, and vitamin D bioavailability
