The strongest associated endometriosis locus, rs12700667 (P = 2.45 × 10−9), is located in known epigenetic regulators (histone modification marks H3K27ac, H3K4Me1 and H3K4Me3), in/near transcription factor binding (TFB) sites for a number of genes, and near a microRNA (miR148a, 87.9 Kb away); the nearest gene is NFE2L3 (Nuclear Factor, Erythroid 2-Like 3), located 290.2 Kb away (Table I). Here, NFE2L3 is linked to endometriosis.
