rs76546355 (A) is a risk allele for Behçet's disease. HLA-B*51 allele and the rs76546355 MHC SNP are independent genetic risk factors for Behçet's disease in Iranian, and that positivity for the rs76546355 risk allele, but not for B*51, does correlate with specific demographic characteristics or clinical manifestations in Behçet's disease patients
