The Table reports 22 novel independent genomic loci associated with risk-taking propensity conditioning on bipolar disorder at a condFDR < 0.01, after excluding loci associated with risk-taking propensity conditioning on SCZ or ADHD (Supplementary Table 6). The full list of significant loci is reported in Supplementary Table 5. Nearest gene and functional category have been annotated using FUMA (for SNPs located in intergenic regions, distance in Kb from the nearest gene is reported). Beta and p show the direction of effect of the A1 allele and p values from the original GWAS dataset. RegBD rank (from 1 to 7, with 1 being associated with highest evidence of functional effects) was calculated using RegulomeDB based on known and predicted regulatory elements. The CADD score, which predicts how deleterious a variant is on protein structure/function was computed in FUMA. Higher scores indicate more deleterious SNPs, with a suggested threshold of 12.37 for a SNP to be considered deleterious. In case the SNP is reported to be a significant eQTL in GTEx v.8 in brain regions or whole blood, the last two columns report regulated genes and relative regions.
