rs397507563 — FLG 3702delG
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele D Category Skin & Eyes Skin Health, Immune & Gut, Inflammation, Food Sensitivity, Asthma, Immune System

Frameshift deletion in the third filaggrin repeat domain — the third most common European FLG null allele, causing filaggrin haploinsufficiency in carriers and complete filaggrin deficiency in compound heterozygotes with R501X or 2282del4

rs403016 — FCGR3A
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele G Category B-Cell Immunity & Antibody-Mediated Disease Innate Immunity, Autoimmune, Lupus, Immune Response, Immune System

Rare missense variant in Fc gamma receptor IIIa (CD16a) causing an Arg36Ser substitution, associated with systemic lupus erythematosus susceptibility in Chinese family-based studies

rs419788 — SKIV2L
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele T Category Interferon Signaling & Systemic Autoimmune Lupus, Autoimmune, MHC Antigen Presentation, Inflammation, HLA, Complement, SLE, MHC Class III

Intronic SKIV2L variant in the MHC class III region; the T allele tags an independent susceptibility signal for systemic lupus erythematosus separate from HLA-DRB1

rs4473653 — SLC2A9
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele A Category Uric Acid & Kidney Function Gout, Uric Acid, Cardiovascular, Diet, Kidney Function

Intronic SLC2A9 variant in a third independent haplotype block within the GLUT9 urate transporter locus; the A allele (reference, ~57% European frequency) is associated with elevated serum uric acid, while the protective G allele (~43% European) improves renal urate clearance — with stronger effects in women — and reduces dietary fructose-induced urate spikes

rs55714927 — ASGR1 ASGR1 K89K
Chromosome 17 Risk Allele T Category Atherogenic Lipoproteins Cardiovascular, LDL Cholesterol, Cholesterol, Atherosclerosis, Liver, Heart Disease

Synonymous coding variant (Lys89Lys) in the asialoglycoprotein receptor 1 gene that acts as an sQTL and eQTL, reducing ASGR1 expression and associating with lower LDL and non-HDL cholesterol at genome-wide significance and reduced coronary artery disease risk

rs5985 — F13A1 Val34Leu
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Coagulation & Clotting Factors Blood Clotting, Thrombosis, Fibrinolysis, Cardiovascular, Thrombophilia, Venous Health

Missense variant in Factor XIII A subunit; the Leu34 allele accelerates thrombin-driven FXIII activation, producing finer and more fibrinolysis-susceptible fibrin clots — moderately protective against venous thromboembolism and myocardial infarction, with context-dependent effects at elevated fibrinogen

Continue reading
rs6536991 — UCP1
Chromosome 4 Risk Allele T Category Liver Fat Thermogenesis, Brown Fat, Fat Metabolism, Obesity, Energy Metabolism

Intronic UCP1 variant — the C allele is associated with reduced overweight risk and lower BMI, likely by influencing UCP1 expression in brown adipose tissue

Continue reading
rs72755295 — EXO1 EXO1 mismatch repair variant
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele G Category Gamete Quality & DNA Repair Fertility, Ovarian Reserve, Menopause, DNA Repair, Mismatch Repair, Breast Cancer

Intronic regulatory variant in EXO1 (exonuclease 1) that increases EXO1 enhancer activity; the G allele is associated with earlier age at natural menopause (ovarian ageing) and elevated breast cancer risk through upregulated EXO1 expression

Continue reading
rs7940244 — NADSYN1 Near DHCR7
Chromosome 11 Risk Allele T Category Vitamin D Metabolism Vitamin D, Bone Health, Immune System, Cholesterol, Cardiovascular

Intronic NADSYN1 variant in the DHCR7/NADSYN1 vitamin D locus; T allele tags the lower-vitamin-D haplotype, reducing 7-dehydrocholesterol availability for skin vitamin D3 synthesis

Continue reading
rs944289 — FOXE1
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele T Category Cancer Risk Thyroid, Cancer Risk, Hormones & Thyroid

Regulatory variant near FOXE1 at 14q13.3 that reduces PTCSC3 tumor suppressor expression, increasing risk of papillary thyroid cancer
