For newly identified loci, the TESK2 promoter had a long-range interaction with the SNVs with highest regulatory potential in the locus, underlining it as a candidate. LOC441204, a gene of unknown function was found to interact with the JAZF1 locus. At the SEC31B locus, there were interactions with two genes, SCD and SLF2. At the C10orf71 locus, MAPK8 showed the most significant interaction.
