Notes

rs55687265, also known as c.1308C>G, p.Phe43Leu and F436L, is a rare variant in the ATP8B4 gene on chromosome 15. Exome sequencing followed by a replication cohort study and then a meta-analysis determined that the rs55687265(C) allele, as oriented in dbSNP, is associated with higher risk for systemic sclerosis (SSc; meta-analysis odds ratio 2.5, p = 1.92 x 10e-7).
