We confirmed that rs12474050 is indeed a cis-eQTL of SPEG (Figure 2) and the COVID-19 risk allele rs12474050*T negatively associates with SPEG expression among muscle skeletal (nominal p = 1.5e-8; beta = −0.106), heart atrial appendage (nominal p = 9e-3; beta = −0.074), and heart left ventricle (nominal p = 3.7e-3; beta = −0.069), although only in the first tissue the SNP passed the multiple adjusted p-value threshold of p ≤ 0.001 (0.05/49). The gene discussed is SPEG; the disease is COVID-19.
