SGF29 and juvenile idiopathic arthritis: An in-depth analysis of this region has previously been reported for JIA, including a subset of samples from the current study; therefore this study will focus on non-MHC associations.7 The novel genome-wide significant association was represented by the lead SNP rs497523 (p=7.12 x 10-9), which is intronic to CCDC101 (16p11.2), also known as SGF29. A further 37 lead SNPs from independent loci, based on linkage disequilibrium, reached the suggestive significance threshold (p≤5 x 10-6).
