TLR6 and nicotine dependence: Six genes were ultra rare [minor allele frequency (MAF) of 0.0005]: CDSN, CHRNA9, IFT43, TLR6, SELENBP1, and GMPPB. Eight genes with MAF of 0.001: ZNF514, OXGR1, DIEXF, TMX4, MTBP, PON2, CRHBP, and ANKRD46 were identified along with three protein-truncating variants associated with loss-of-function: AGTRAP, ANKRD46, and PPA1. Using an ancestry filtered control group (N = 2,814), nine genes were found; three were also significant in the comparison to the larger control group including CHRNA9 previously implicated in alcohol and nicotine dependence.
