2. pQTL instrument availability (Tier-B probe)

No prot-* pQTL GWAS dataset found for this protein (matched by UniProt accession and symbol).

3. GWAS Catalog results — traits with signal at this locus

No GWAS Catalog associations mapped to this gene.

4. Phenome map — where this gene is a genetic locus, vs. where MR exists

Top diseases by Open Targets association (of 34 total). Associations are loci, not causal claims. The causal-status column is a four-state triage per pair: established (curated) = a curated clinical assertion exists (ClinGen/G2P/GEL/Orphanet/ClinVar — any validity level, MR adds little); exploratory rare-variant signal = ExWAS burden evidence without curation — a candidate NEW gene-disease relationship; common-variant locus = GWAS signal, classic pQTL-MR territory; multi-layer = burden+GWAS together, an allelic-series candidate (the strongest causal setup). Burden estimand is carrier-vs-noncarrier, not per-SD MR.

Disease	genetic assoc.	burden (ExWAS)	causal status	MR status
obesity disorder	0.321	—	common-variant locus	no MR -> candidate analysis
type 2 diabetes mellitus	0.074	—	common-variant locus	no MR -> candidate analysis
basal cell carcinoma	0.057	—	common-variant locus	MR: beta=0.204, p=0.19 (cis)
non-melanoma skin carcinoma	0.057	—	common-variant locus	no MR -> candidate analysis
response to xenobiotic stimulus	0.033	—	common-variant locus	no MR -> candidate analysis
hypertensive disorder	0.033	—	common-variant locus	no MR -> candidate analysis

Of the 6 rows above, 5 have no MR estimate in this resource. Across all retrieved diseases for this gene: 0 exploratory rare-variant signal(s), 0 multi-layer (allelic-series candidate) pair(s). Final triage still belongs to a statistical geneticist.

Caveats declared by the tools

• phenome — Top 30 of 34 associated diseases by overall score. genetic_association aggregates GWAS common-variant AND rare-variant evidence. These are ASSOCIATIONS (loci), not causal claims.
• chembl — No ChEMBL target for ‘MENT’.
• gnomad — No gnomAD constraint data.
• gwas — No GWAS Catalog SNPs mapped to this gene.
• clinvar — No ClinVar records.
• pharmgkb — No PharmGKB/ClinPGx clinical annotations (gene may not be a pharmacogene).
• gwas_traits — No GWAS Catalog associations mapped to this gene.
