rs30187 is one of several SNPs in the ERAP1 gene that has been shown in a large (over 1,000 Caucasian patients) study to be associated with ankylosing spondylitis. Each T allele appears to increase the odds by about 1.4x (p=3.4x10e-10). PMID 17952073, PMID 18037607 A study of 872 Korean patients found that each T allele was associated with 1.5x higher odds of ankylosing spondylitis.

C;C

Normal very low risk (1 in a thousand) of this rare autoimmune disease that causes inflammation of the spine and joints. Verified in Europeans and Asians.

C;T

Higher, but still very low, risk (0.14%) of this rare autoimmune disease that causes inflammation of the spine and joints.

T;T

Doubled, but still very low, risk (0.2%) of this rare autoimmune disease that causes inflammation of the spine and joints.
