Who was studied 170,761 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0246 higher (95% confidence interval 0.017-0.032); p = 3 × 10−10.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 32% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q31.3 — in an intron of TMEM131L.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of High light scatter reticulocyte count — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with High light scatter reticulocyte count.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of High light scatter reticulocyte count compared to the general population.
rs10028187 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KIAA0922 gene. Published research associates it with high light scatter reticulocyte count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs10028187 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs10028187 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 rs10028187 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Cell 2016, PMID:27863252. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
