  1. Adj. p value is the adjusted p value with BH-correction; MAF denotes the minor allele frequency in this sample. The estimated Kendall’s τ between SBP adj and GE UBA52,adj is − 0.01. Note: The markers in the table are in very high linkage disequilibrium (LD) (with 0.96 ≤ r ≤ 0.99). SNVs rs6554 and rs10425018 in the same gene are in perfect LD with rs2314667 and have identical association; also rs7258480 is in perfect LD with rs2314664
