Table 5. Functional and ancestral annotation of potentially pleiotropic single nucleotide polymorphisms in the Population Architecture using Genomics and Epidemiology (PAGE) study.

All PheWAS-identified variants and variants in linkage disequilibrium with the index variant (at r2 ≥ 0.80 based AFR 1000 Genomes Project data) were functionally and ancestrally annotated using HaploReg v4.1, RegulomeDB v1.1, the SNP and CNV Annotation Database (SCAN), and local genetic ancestry. HaploReg v4.1 NHGRI-EBI GWAS Catalog data were augmented using NHGRI-EBI GWAS Catalog data from 2019-06-20, and associations listed are at p<5.0x10-8 unless otherwise noted. Local genetic ancestry, shown as proportion of African-derived alleles, was estimated using LAMP-LD. An asterisk in the direction of effect column indicates an opposite direction of effect for two of the phenotype classes listed. Genomic position given is based on hg38.
