  • Rare SLC13A1 variants associate with intervertebral disc disorder highlighting role of sulfate in disc pathology - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 35110524

    ABSTRACT: Back pain is a common and debilitating disorder with largely unknown underlying biology. Here we report a genome-wide association study of back pain using diagnoses assigned in clinical practice; dorsalgia (119,100 cases, 909,847 controls) and intervertebral disc disorder (IDD) (58,854 cases, 922,958 controls). We identify 41 variants at 33 loci. The most significant association (ORIDD = 0.92, P = 1.6 × 10−39; ORdorsalgia = 0.92, P = 7.2 × 10−15) is with a 3'UTR variant (rs1871452-T) in CHST3, encoding a sulfotransferase enzyme expressed in intervertebral discs. The largest effects on IDD are conferred by rare (MAF = 0.07 − 0.32%) loss-of-function (LoF) variants in SLC13A1, encoding a sodium-sulfate co-transporter (LoF burden OR = 1.44, P = 3

  • A genome-wide association study of mass spectrometry proteomics using a nanoparticle enrichment platform - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 41310232

    ABSTRACT: Most studies to date of protein quantitative trait loci (pQTLs) have relied on affinity proteomics platforms, which provide only limited information about the targeted protein isoforms and may be affected by genetic variation in their epitope binding. Here we show that mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics can complement these studies and provide insights into the role of specific protein isoform and epitope-altering variants. Using the Seer Proteograph nanoparticle enrichment MS platform, we identified and replicated new pQTLs in a genome-wide association study of proteins in blood plasma samples from two cohorts and evaluated previously reported pQTLs from affinity proteomics platforms. We found that >30% of the evaluated pQTLs were confirmed by MS proteomics to be consistent
