"+" =expressed in FLS; "-"=not expressed in FLS; ND= not determined (pseudogene, not variants or no expression in synovial tissues). Only genes with amino-acid-changing SNPs or deletions/insertions were studied for FLS expression. ** SIFT and PolyPhen2 predictions of the potential consequence of the amino-acid change (yellow highlights the prediction of significant effect on protein function). §§ Expression levels in synovial tissues shown as increased in DA compared with DA.ACI(Cia25) congenics, based on a previously published microarray experiment (P<0.009)
