BPTF - what this gene does
The variants on file for this gene are all linked to the broad category of rare disease conditions. No additional trait-level detail is available from the current summaries, so this entry describes the trait themes the variants are connected to rather than a specific molecular function.
Key takeaways
- Multiple high-magnitude variants in this gene are cataloged under rare disease associations
- All top-ranked variants carry a magnitude score of 5.50, the highest tier represented in this dataset
- There are 521 total variants on file for this gene
- Detailed trait breakdowns for individual variants are not yet available in the research summaries
- The rare disease signal appears consistently across many independent variants in this gene
Notable variants
The leading variants on file, including rs1057518354, rs1135401778, rs1158151918, rs1259365489, rs1292339242, rs1293898535, and rs140673996, each carry a magnitude score of 5.50 (a higher-priority signal tier in this dataset) and are all classified under the rare disease trait theme. Additional variants, including rs140942173 and rs144807262, share the same score and trait classification, with no distinguishing detail currently separating them in the available data.
Trait associations
Every variant in the top-ranked tier of this gene is associated with the rare disease trait category. This pattern holds across variants rs145536461, rs145870742, rs146241932, rs147034943, and rs1489258620, as well as the full set of 20 top-magnitude variants listed. The repeated appearance of the rare disease label across multiple independent variants strengthens the association signal in principle, though granular condition-level data is not yet on file for any single variant.
Evidence quality
The top-ranked variants in this gene, such as rs149704276 and rs1555639076, all carry magnitude scores of 5.50, placing them in a high-priority annotation tier within this dataset. However, no prior research summaries are yet available for any individual variant, meaning the current trait labels reflect catalog-level annotation rather than fully characterized study findings. With 521 total variants on file and 16 flagged as having prior research notes, more detailed evidence is expected as summaries are added. The associations should be treated as preliminary until individual-variant study data is available.
What this is NOT
These variants are population-level statistical signals, not deterministic predictors for any individual. Nothing here constitutes medical advice, a diagnosis, or a recommendation for any action.
