    ABSTRACT: Summary Psoriasis vulgaris (PsV) is an immune-mediated inflammatory skin disorder with complex genetic architecture. Most genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of PsV have been limited to analyzing common single-nucleotide variants in Europeans, lacking diversity in the variant spectrum and ancestral background. To investigate the contribution of rare variants (RVs) and structural variants (SVs), we perform a whole-genome sequencing study involving 1,415 PsV cases and 3,968 controls in Japanese. A GWAS signal at IFNLR1 is fine-mapped to a 3.3-kb deletion SV disrupting an epithelium-specific putative enhancer, which is validated by PacBio long-read sequencing. Gene-based RV analyses identify two susceptibility genes: IFIH1 (p = 9.8 × 10−6) and CERCAM (p = 4.1 × 10−7). Nota
