With >6,500 participants from the International CF Gene Modifier Consortium, genome-wide association investigation identified a new modifier locus for meconium ileus encompassing ATP12A on chromosome 13 (min p = 3.83x10-10); replicated loci encompassing SLC6A14 on chromosome X and SLC26A9 on chromosome 1, (min p<2.2x10-16, 2.81x10−11, respectively); and replicated a suggestive locus on chromosome 7 near PRSS1 (min p = 2.55x10-7). The gene discussed is PRSS1; the disease is Meconium ileus.
