Disclosed are single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with hypertension, end stage renal disease due to hypertension, non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, end stage renal disease due to non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, atherosclerotic peripheral vascular disease due to hypertension, cerebrovascular accident due to hypertension, cataracts due to hypertension, cardiomyopathy with hypertension, myocardial infarction due to hypertension, atherosclerotic peripheral vascular disease due to non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, cerebrovascular accident due to non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, ischemic cardiomyopathy, ischemic cardiomyopathy with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction due to non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation without valvular disease, alcohol abuse, anxiety, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cholecystectomy, degenerative joint disease, end stage renal disease and frequent de-clots, end stage renal disease due to focal segmental glomerular sclerosis, end stage renal disease due to insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, or seizure disorder. Also disclosed are methods for using the SNPs to determine susceptibility to these diseases; nucleotide sequences containing the SNPs; kits for determining the presence of the SNPs; and methods of treatment or prophylaxis based on the presence of the SNPs.
