methQTL at polymorphism rs9271155 based on sample group. Genotype at rs9271155 affects methylation level at CpG site cg17416722, whereby individuals with AA genotype at rs9271155 have low methylation levels at cg17416722, and individuals with BB genotype have high methylation levels. Individuals with a heterozygous genotype (AB) have intermediate methylation levels. From [unpublished data]. Abbreviations: methQTL = methylation quantitative trait locus
