rs6922269 — MTHFD1L
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Coronary Artery Disease & Atherosclerosis Cardiovascular, Heart Disease, Folate, B Vitamins, Homocysteine, Methylation

Intronic variant in the mitochondrial folate enzyme MTHFD1L, associated with increased coronary artery disease risk and post-ACS cardiovascular mortality through impaired one-carbon unit supply

rs705379 — PON1 PON1 promoter -108C>T
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele A Category Vascular Inflammation & Remodeling Cardiovascular, HDL Cholesterol, Oxidative Stress, Antioxidants, Atherosclerosis, Liver Health

Promoter polymorphism that controls PON1 gene expression — the T allele (A on the plus strand) reduces transcription factor binding, halving arylesterase activity and lowering HDL-mediated antioxidant protection against LDL oxidation.

rs7530511 — IL23R Leu310Pro
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele T Category IBD & Mucosal Immunity Autoimmune, Autoimmunity, Thyroid, Inflammation, Immune System, Immune & Autoimmune

Missense variant in the IL-23 receptor that substitutes leucine for proline at position 310; the rare leucine allele (T) is associated with susceptibility to Graves' disease and rheumatoid arthritis through altered IL-23/Th17 immune signaling

rs80338701 — PMM2 F119L
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele A Category Metabolic Enzymes & Rare Disorders Congenital, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling, Metabolic, Neurological Risk, Micronutrients

Second most common pathogenic PMM2 allele (p.Phe119Leu); in compound heterozygosity with R141H produces the classic PMM2-CDG phenotype with cerebellar hypoplasia, intellectual disability, and multi-organ glycosylation failure; homozygosity is likely lethal

rs9383935 — CCDC170
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele T Category Endometriosis & Uterine Health Endometriosis, Estrogen, Breast Cancer, Cancer Risk, Women's Health, Reproductive Health

3' UTR variant in CCDC170 at the 6q25.1 estrogen-signaling locus; the T allele disrupts a miR-27a binding site, reducing CCDC170 expression and increasing breast cancer risk (OR 1.38 in Chinese women); the same locus independently confers endometriosis susceptibility

rs1802059 — MTRR
Chromosome 5 Risk Allele A Category Methylation & Detox Methylation, B Vitamins, Homocysteine, Cardiovascular, Folate

Synonymous MTRR variant (c.1911G>A) associated with congenital heart disease risk in offspring and maternal carriers, likely through regulatory effects on B12 recycling capacity

Continue reading
rs1805010 — IL4R Ile75Val
Chromosome 16 Risk Allele G Category Allergy & Atopic Disease Asthma, Immune Response, Inflammation, JAK-STAT Signaling, Biologic Therapy, Lung Health

Missense variant in the extracellular domain of the IL-4 receptor alpha chain that increases IL-4 signaling sensitivity; the Val75 (G) allele is found in 80% of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis patients and elevates IgE-driven Th2 immune responses in asthma and atopic disease

Continue reading
rs193922916 — APP A673V (Aβ A2V)
Chromosome 21 Risk Allele A Category Neurology & Cognition Alzheimer's, Neurodegeneration, Cognitive Decline, Amyloidosis, Carrier Status, Genetic Counseling

Recessive pathogenic APP missense variant causing early-onset Alzheimer's disease in homozygotes; heterozygous carriers are unaffected due to a dominant-negative inhibition of amyloid aggregation

Continue reading
rs2229431 — INSR
Chromosome 19 Risk Allele A Category Blood Sugar & Diabetes Insulin, Insulin Resistance, Diabetes, Mental Health, Brain Health, Metabolic Health

Synonymous exon 13 variant in the insulin receptor gene; the A allele has been associated with schizoaffective disorder and modestly with body height in psychiatric cohort studies

Continue reading
rs2280275 — CYP2J2
Chromosome 1 Risk Allele C Category Pharmacogenomics Pharmacogenomics, Cardiovascular, Blood Pressure, Omega-3, Heart Disease, Ancestry-Specific, Endothelial Health

Intronic variant in CYP2J2 that tags reduced epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) production, lowering the vasodilatory and cardioprotective signaling molecules derived from arachidonic acid
