Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are instrumental in identifying loci harboring common single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) that affect human traits and diseases. GWAS hits emerge in clusters, but the focus is often on the most significant hit in each trait- or disease-associated locus. The remaining hits represent SNVs in linkage disequilibrium (LD) and are considered redundant and thus frequently marginally reported or exploited. Here, we interrogate the value of integrating the full set of GWAS hits in a locus repeatedly associated with cardiac conduction traits and arrhythmia, SCN5A-SCN10A. Our analysis reveals 5 common 7-SNV haplotypes (Hap1–5) with 2 combinations associated with life-threatening arrhythmia—Brugada syndrome (the risk Hap1/1 and protective Hap2/3 genotypes). Hap1 and Hap2 share 3 SNVs; thus, this analysis suggests that assuming redundancy among clustered GWAS hits can lead to confounding disease-risk associations and supports the need to deconstruct GWAS data in the context of haplotype composition. Haplotype block analysis separates cis-regulatory regions around SCN5A and SCN10A Haplotype diversity limits to 5 common 7-SNV combinations in the enhancer region Hap1/1 and Hap2/3 are Brugada syndrome risk and protective genotypes, respectively Hap1/1 and Hap2/3 genotypes are anti-correlated with SCN10A expression The GWAS field tends to focus on the most significant hit in each disease-associated locus, despite that its distinct association is not a proxy of functionality and it is accompanied by other significant clustered signals. Focusing on Brugada syndrome, Pinsach-Abuin et al. show that deconstructing GWAS hit clusters enhances disease-relevant annotations.
