SNP positions are reported according to Build 36 and their alleles are coded based on the positive strand. Alleles (effect/other), EAF, beta (β), s.e.m. and P values are based on the meta-analysis of GWAS I + II+ Metabochip association data from the data set shown in the ‘Analysis’ column. EPB denotes European population-based studies, ‘All’ denotes all ancestries.

Notable genes from biological relevance to obesity (B); copy number variation (C); DEPICT analyses (D); GRAIL results (G); BMI-associated variant is in strong LD (r2 ≥ 0.7) with a missense variant in the indicated gene (M); gene nearest to the index SNP (N); association and eQTL data converge to affect gene expression (Q).
