This GWAS examined genetic variants associated with disordered eating in 2,564 female twins using four eating disorder phenotypes (anorexia nervosa spectrum, bulimia nervosa spectrum, purging via substances, and disordered eating behaviors). Six regions reached suggestive significance (p<5×10⁻⁷), implicating CLEC5A, LOC136242, TSHZ1, and SYTL5 for anorexia nervosa spectrum; NT5C1B for bulimia nervosa spectrum; and ATP8A2 for disordered eating behaviors. No variants reached genome-wide significance at p<10⁻⁸.
