rs3923809 — BTBD9
Chromosome 6 Risk Allele A Category Hormones & Sleep Sleep, Iron, Dopamine, Neurological Risk, Fatigue, Circadian

Second independent intronic BTBD9 variant associated with restless legs syndrome and periodic limb movements during sleep via iron homeostasis and dopaminergic dysregulation

Continue reading
rs4775065 — LIPC
Chromosome 15 Risk Allele A Category Triglycerides & Fatty Acids Fat Metabolism, HDL Cholesterol, Cardiovascular, Cholesterol, Heart Disease, Triglycerides

Intronic LIPC variant associated with susceptibility to low HDL-C and coronary heart disease through hepatic lipase activity modulation; A allele (minor, ~29% globally) confers elevated CHD risk

Continue reading
rs6949152 — NRF1
Chromosome 7 Risk Allele G Category Longevity & Aging Mitochondria, Longevity, Aging, Aerobic Capacity, Endurance, Fitness

Intronic variant in the master mitochondrial biogenesis transcription factor — the G allele is associated with lower slow-twitch muscle fiber proportion and reduced aerobic training adaptability

Continue reading
rs897453 — PEMT
Chromosome 17 Risk Allele T Category Vitamins & Nutrient Absorption Methylation, Liver Health, Women's Health, B Vitamins, Fertility

PEMT missense variant (Val95Ile) reducing endogenous phosphatidylcholine synthesis and elevating dietary choline requirements, with strongest impact in premenopausal women and during pregnancy
