rs699

In any case, the rs699(C) allele encodes the threonine variant, which is associated with higher plasma angiotensin levels, and ultimately higher blood pressure leading to increased risk for hypertension associated disorders.

This association was first reported in 1992 [pre-eclampsia (pregnancy-induced hypertension)[PMID 8513325, PMID 8348146] but did not present a risk in one African population [PMID 16059745].

The G (major) allele is associated with:

• Increased risk of hypertension [R].
• Increased risk of pre-eclampsia during pregnancy [R].
• Greater improvements in power-based fitness [R]
• More prevalent in power-based athlete populations [R, R]
