Further studies of the genes in the region around the MHC locus identified C4 as a likely causative gene. A particular allele of C4 was significantly associated with schizophrenia. In addition, it was found that individuals with high expression of this allele of C4 had elevated risk of developing schizophrenia. Which of the following variants would be most likely to increase risk of schizophrenia from this allele?
a. a variant that decreases binding of an activating transcription factor to the C4 promoter
b. a 5’ UTR variant that destabilizes the C4 mRNA
c. a duplication of the C4 gene
d. a nonsense coding variant
