rs397516929 — DSP Ser987Pro
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele C Category Cardiomyopathy & Structural Heart Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Arrhythmia, Fibrosis, Genetic Counseling, Carrier Status

Rare missense variant in desmoplakin that likely disrupts desmosomal integrity and is associated with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy risk

Continue reading
rs4900442 — CYP46A1
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele C Category Cholesterol & Lipoproteins Brain Health, Cholesterol, Alzheimer's, Cognitive Decline, Neurodegeneration, Lipid Metabolism

Intronic variant in the brain cholesterol 24-hydroxylase gene; C allele associated with a higher 24S-hydroxycholesterol/cholesterol ratio in CSF and modestly elevated Alzheimer's disease risk, primarily in East Asian populations

rs4986791 — TLR4 Thr399Ile
Chromosome 9 Risk Allele T Category Innate Immunity & Infection Defense Immune System, Inflammation, Autoimmune, Cardiovascular, Infectious Disease

Missense variant in Toll-like receptor 4 that co-segregates with Asp299Gly on the same haplotype, together reducing LPS-driven innate immune signaling and altering gram-negative bacterial recognition

rs57035593 — TC2N
Chromosome 14 Risk Allele T Category Coronary Artery Disease & Atherosclerosis Thrombosis, Blood Clotting, Cardiovascular, Thrombophilia, Heart Disease, Genetic Counseling

Intronic variant in TC2N (tandem C2 domains, nuclear) robustly associated with venous thromboembolism risk; the T allele increases VTE risk and was validated by CRISPR zebrafish knockdown as a genuine novel hemostasis gene

Continue reading
rs5753231 — TCN2 TCN2 2KB Upstream Variant
Chromosome 22 Risk Allele T Category Vitamins & Nutrient Absorption Vitamin B12, B Vitamins, Methylation, Homocysteine, Micronutrients

Promoter-proximal upstream variant in TCN2 that increases transcobalamin II protein production, boosting circulating capacity to transport vitamin B12 to cells

Continue reading
rs61754011 — VWF Gly550Arg
Chromosome 12 Risk Allele T Category Von Willebrand & Anticoagulant Proteins Cardiovascular, Blood Clotting, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling, Thrombophilia

Pathogenic missense variant in the VWF propeptide D2 domain that prevents high molecular weight multimer assembly in the Golgi apparatus; homozygous carriers develop von Willebrand disease type 2A with mucocutaneous bleeding, while heterozygotes are typically unaffected

Continue reading
rs662 — PON1 Q192R
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele C Category Vascular Inflammation & Remodeling Cardiovascular, Detoxification, Cholesterol, Diet, Organophosphate Toxicity

Affects paraoxonase-1 enzyme activity for detoxifying organophosphates and protecting LDL from oxidation

Continue reading
rs6908425 — CDKAL1
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele C Category IBD & Mucosal Immunity Crohn's Disease, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Autoimmune, IBD, Inflammation, Gut Health

Intronic variant in CDKAL1, a tRNA methylthiotransferase gene; the C allele is associated with increased risk of Crohn's disease and shared pleiotropic risk for psoriasis through immune cell expression of CDKAL1
