All pQTLs were located in non-coding regions of the genome, but one SNP was in complete LD with a missense SNP in FCGR2A (rs1801274, His167Arg) previously associated with systemic lupus erythematosus [23], ulcerative colitis [24] and Kawasaki disease [25]. Here, FCGR2A is linked to systemic lupus erythematosus.
