Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (nsCL/P) is a common craniofacial anomaly with a complex and heterogeneous aetiology. Knowledge regarding specific genetic factors underlying this birth defect is still not well understood. Therefore, we conducted an independent replication analysis for the top-associated variants located within the DLG1 locus at chromosome 3q29, which was identified as a novel cleft-susceptibility locus in our genome-wide association study (GWAS). Mega-analysis of the pooled individual data from the GWAS and replication study confirmed that common DLG1 variants are associated with the risk of nsCL/P. Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs338217 and rs7649443, were statistically significant even at the genome-wide level (P-trend=9.70E-10 and P-trend=8.96E-09, respectively). Three other SNPs, rs9826379, rs6805920 and rs6583202, reached a suggestive genome-wide significance threshold (P-trend
