Selection criteria: evidence from at least 2 categories (coding variant gene, S-PrediXcan gene, gene implicated in mouse kidney single-cell expression, or drug target) and from at least 4 analyses. Gene = Gene showed enriched expression in one or more cell type in murine kidney single-cell RNA sequencing experiment, or was significant in genetically predicted gene expression analysis for any of the 45 tissues; Novel = Indicator variable denotes whether variants in a given gene region have previously been reported in genome-wide association studies of blood pressure traits. Sentinel SNPs = Sentinel SNP from common or rare variant analyses from each independent locus. Nearest Gene = Column reports genes that would have been identified if the nearest gene annotation strategy was used to link GWAS significant variants. CVD Tissues = Column identifies genes that were significantly associated with genetically predicted gene expression and blood pressure traits (using S-PrediXcan) in the following cardiovascular related tissues: heart atrial appendage, heart left ventricle, aorta, coronary artery, tibial artery, adrenal gland and kidney. Up (down) arrow indicates a positive (negative) association between GPGE and at least one blood pressure trait. Dash indicates data was not significant and x indicates data were unavailable. For a full-set of tissue specific results, see Supplementary Tables 8a–8c. Mouse kidney single-cell clusters = Column highlights the cell-type in which specific genes were enriched in murine single-cell RNA sequencing expression analyses. Supplementary Drug Table Reference = References the supplementary tables containing the gene-drug relationship. Count/Drug = Column summarizes drugs targeting genes when the number of drugs is ≤2 or the total number of drugs targeting the gene when the number of drugs is >2 which were identified to interrelate with the gene from the following databases: Guide to Pharmacology Interactions, Drugbank, PharmGKB, TDG Clinical Trials, TEND, and/or ChEMBL Interactions. Aorta IPA = Trait(s) for which the gene was identified in the aorta IPA network, SBP = systolic blood pressure; DBP = diastolic blood pressure; PP = pulse pressure;

a

Genetically predicted expression of these genes was positively associated with pulse pressure, inversely associated with DBP, and non-significant for SBP

b

Genetically predicted expression of these genes was positively associated with DBP, inversely associated with pulse pressure, and non-significant for SBP

c

Genetically predicted expression of these genes was positively associated with DBP and inversely associated with SBP and pulse pressure

d

Genetically predicted expression of these genes was positively associated with SBP and pulse pressure and inversely associated with DBP

e

Targeted by an antihypertensive medication

f

Mendelian gene for hypertension

g

Mendelian gene for hypotension
