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

2 association rows across 2 traits (2 genome-wide significant rows). Associations are loci, not causal claims; the mapped gene at a locus is not necessarily the effector gene.

Trait best p lead SNP n assoc study MR status
Blood protein levels 2e-210 rs10038416 1 GCST006585 no MR -> candidate analysis
SPINK6 protein levels 1e-132 rs74607481 1 GCST90470725 no MR -> candidate analysis

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

No genetically-associated diseases retrieved from Open Targets.
