Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a cardiac arrhythmia disorder associated with sudden death in young adults. With the exception of SCN5A, encoding the cardiac sodium channel Na(V)1.5, susceptibility genes remain largely unknown. Here we performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis comprising 2,820 unrelated cases with BrS and 10,001 controls, and identified 21 association signals at 12 loci (10 new). Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-heritability estimates indicate a strong polygenic influence. Polygenic risk score analyses based on the 21 susceptibility variants demonstrate varying cumulative contribution of common risk alleles among different patient subgroups, as well as genetic associations with cardiac electrical traits and disorders in the general population. The predominance of cardiac transcription factor loci indicates that transcriptional regulation is a key feature of BrS pathogenesis. Furthermore, functional studies conducted on MAPRE2, encoding the microtubule plus-end binding protein EB2, point to microtubule-related trafficking effects on Na(V)1.5 expression as a new underlying molecular mechanism. Taken together, these findings broaden our understanding of the genetic architecture of BrS and provide new insights into its molecular underpinnings. Genome-wide association analyses identify new susceptibility loci for Brugada syndrome. Functional studies implicate microtubule-related trafficking effects on sodium channel expression as an underlying molecular mechanism., European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program [772376-EScORIAL]; Health~Holland; Top Sector Life Sciences Health; Wellcome Trust [076113, 085475, 090355]; Helmholtz Zentrum Munchen-German Research Center for Environmental Health - German Federal Ministry of Education and Research; State of Bavaria; Munich Center of Health Sciences (MC Health), Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat, as part of LMUinnovativ; research program Etoiles montantes des Pays de la Loire [REGIOCARD RPH081-U1087-REG-PDL]; ANR JCJC LEARN [R21006NN, RPV21014NNA]; H2020-MSCA-IF-2014 Program of the European Commission [RISTRAD-661617]; Canadian Heart Rhythm Society's George Mines Award; European Society of Cardiology research award; Philippa and Marvin Carsley Cardiology Chair; Fondation Leducq; National Institutes of Health (NIH) NHGRI T32 [1T32HG010464-01]; IRP-VERACITIES-New Mechanisms for VEntricular ARrhythmia And CardIomeTabolic DIseasES an I-SITE NExT health and engineering initiative (Ecole Centrale); IRP-VERACITIES-New Mechanisms for VEntricular ARrhythmia And CardIomeTabolic DIseasES an I-SITE NExT health and engineering initiative (Nantes University); IRP-GAINES-Genetic Architecture IN cardiovascular disEaSes - INSERM; CNRS; Amsterdam Cardiovascular Sciences fellowship; NHLBI BioData Catalyst Fellows Program; Dutch Heart Foundation [CVON PREDICT2]; Innovational Research Incentives Scheme Vidi grant from the Netherlands Organisation for Health Research and Development (ZonMw) [91714371]; Robert Lancaster Memorial Fund; Cardiac Risk in the Young; Wetenschappelijk Fonds Willy Gepts VUB-UZ Brussel; VUB IRP project `IMAGica: an Integrative personalized Medical Approach for Genetic diseases, Inherited Cardia Arrhythmias as a model' and Innoviris BRIDGE 2017; project `IGenCare: Integrated Personalised Medical Genomics Care Solution for Patients with Rare Genetic Diseases'; Barts BRC; DZHK (German Centre for Cardiovascular Research); BMBF (German Ministry of Education and Research); Danish Heart Foundation; IWT [140935]; ALS Liga Belgie; National Lottery of Belgium; KU Leuven Opening the Future Fund; HYPERGENES [HEALTH-F4-2007]; Leducq Foundation for Cardiovascular Research grant [18CVD05]; Netherlands CardioVascular Research Initiative [CVON PREDICT2]; NIH [HL47678, HL138103, 1RO1HL092577, R01HL128914, K24HL105780]; W.W.
