3' UTR regulatory variant in LPIN2 (lipin 2) that alters fat distribution and insulin sensitivity, with risk for type 2 diabetes that is amplified by obesity
Intronic TERT variant influencing telomere maintenance, associated with testicular and ovarian cancer risk, reduced platinum chemotherapy benefit in lung cancer, and a protective effect against paranoid schizophrenia
RYR1 missense variant causing malignant hyperthermia susceptibility and central core disease; carriers face life-threatening reactions to volatile anesthetics and succinylcholine
Intronic variant in the intestinal and renal vitamin C transporter gene (SVCT1) representing an independent haplotype signal at the SLC23A1 locus — the G allele is associated with lower plasma vitamin C concentrations via reduced transporter output distinct from the Val264Met missense variant (rs33972313)
Missense variant in plasminogen that reduces fibrinolytic activity and impairs fibrin clearance from mucosal surfaces, causing ligneous (woody) pseudomembrane formation and dramatically increasing risk for chronic otitis media and other mucous membrane inflammation
APOE E2 variant - generally protective for cardiovascular health
Rare pathogenic missense variant in cardiac troponin T causing calcium desensitization and autosomal dominant dilated cardiomyopathy and left ventricular noncompaction
Regulatory variant near LOC105378189 non-coding RNA locus on chromosome 14q23; the T allele is associated with increased susceptibility to intracranial berry aneurysm through putative regulatory effects on vascular wall integrity genes
Regulatory tag variant near SOX17 at chromosome 8q11.23 associated with intracranial aneurysm susceptibility in European and East Asian populations; A allele confers elevated risk through putative effects on SOX17 endothelial transcription factor expression
Regulatory variant near STK24 (MST3), a kinase essential for hippocampal neurogenesis and neuronal migration — the G allele is associated with disrupted HPA axis stress reactivity and anxiety-like phenotypes
