Our Bayesian colocalization analysis revealed five genes, including GTF2H4, FLOT1, HCP5, immediate early response 3 (IER3), and serine/threonine kinase 19 (STK19), that were identified as having a shared variant with autoimmune diseases (PP.H4 > 0.8, Figure 3a and Table S2). Here, IER3 is linked to autoimmune disease.
