White blood cell count (neutrophil)

near CGN · rs10127622

What the study found

Who was studied 16,201 African American or Afro-Caribbean individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.195 lower (95% confidence interval 0.16-0.23); p = 1 × 10−29.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 69% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q21.3 — between genes, 14.6 kb from CGN.

What each result means

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to White blood cell count (neutrophil). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to White blood cell count (neutrophil). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to White blood cell count (neutrophil). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs10127622

What is rs10127622?

rs10127622 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CGN gene. Published research associates it with white blood cell count (neutrophil). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10127622 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 rs10127622 come from?

GWAS Catalog, BMC genomics 2021, PMID:34107879. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
