Rs543749(G;G) 2.12.1 if a smoker, somewhat more likely to develop COPD
rs543749, also known as IVS21_22 or V-1, is a SNP in the ADAM metallopeptidase domain 33 ADAM33 gene.

A study of ~600 non-Hispanic white males who smoked concluded that rs543749(G;G) carriers, i.e. those homozygous for the most common allele, were more likely (p< 0.0026, after Bonferroni correction) to develop chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) than carriers of one or two rs543749(T) alleles.10.1186/1465-9921-10-21
