Missense variant in Toll-Like Receptor 2 impairing innate immune signaling to gram-positive bacteria and mycobacteria, increasing susceptibility to tuberculosis, sepsis, and staphylococcal infections
Synonymous variant that reduces SR-BI receptor expression and impairs HDL cholesterol uptake by the liver, lowering HDL-C levels and modestly increasing cardiovascular risk
Missense variant in the FUT2 fucosyltransferase enzyme that alters haptocorrin glycosylation and is one of the strongest genetic determinants of circulating vitamin B12 levels
X-linked monoamine oxidase A variant affecting enzyme activity and neurotransmitter breakdown
Obesity GWAS missense variant in SH2B1 that impairs leptin signaling and increases visceral fat and type 2 diabetes risk
Intronic IL23R variant in which the T allele increases susceptibility to Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and ankylosing spondylitis, while the G allele is protective — independent of the rs2201841 risk signal at the same locus
Intronic variant in PLCE1 (phospholipase C epsilon 1) associated with elevated systolic and diastolic blood pressure; the G allele has been linked in large GWAS to modestly higher blood pressure and, through shared genetic architecture, to increased susceptibility to preeclampsia and other hypertensive disorders of pregnancy
Gain-of-function missense variant in the IL-4 receptor alpha chain that amplifies Th2 immune signaling, increasing susceptibility to asthma, atopic dermatitis, and allergic disease
B12 recycling enzyme — regenerates active B12 for the methylation cycle
Regulatory variant at chromosome 6q16.1 near POU3F2 (BRN2), a master transcription factor for cortical neuron development; the A allele is associated with higher general cognitive ability and educational attainment in GWAS studies totalling over 1 million individuals
