Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration

SLC12A7 · rs4580814

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2010, PMID:20139978)
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2010, PMID:20139978)
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2010, PMID:20139978)

Questions about rs4580814

What is rs4580814?

rs4580814 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC12A7 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4580814 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs4580814 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2010, PMID:20139978. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
