Iris characteristics

SEMA3A · rs10235789

What the study found

Who was studied 2,121 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 499 European ancestry adolescent twins and siblings, 73 European ancestry adult individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.12 higher (95% confidence interval 0.08-0.16); p = 7 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q21.11 — in an intron of SEMA3A.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Iris characteristics. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Iris characteristics. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Iris characteristics. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs10235789

What is rs10235789?

rs10235789 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SEMA3A gene. Published research associates it with iris characteristics. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10235789 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 rs10235789 come from?

GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2011, PMID:21835309. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
