Table 1. Percentage of SNPs that are in linkage disequilibrium (r²>0.8) with a SNP predicted to be located on TFBS, splicing-affecting site, or miRNA binding site.

	TFBS	Splicing	miRNA binding site
eQTL SNPs affecting expression levels in both whole blood and LCLs (37 SNPs)	73.7% ^‡	42.1% ^‡	44.7% ^‡
eQTL SNPs affecting expression levels in only whole blood (49 SNPs)	58.8% ^‡	43.1%^‡	29.4% ^†
non-eQTL SNPs (5,681 SNPs)	34.8%	17.3%	14.1%

The following abbreviations are used: TFBS, transcription factor binding site; miRNA, micro RNA; LCL, lymphoblastoid cell line.

^†

P<0.01,

^‡

P<0.001: Significantly higher compared to non-eQTL SNPs (χ² test).
