SLC8A1 · rs10490045

What the study found

Who was studied 53,184 British ancestry cases, 373,611 British ancestry controls; replicated in 367,900 European ancestry cases, 363,919 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0275 lower (95% confidence interval 0.02-0.035); p = 2 × 10−14.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 77% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p22.1 — in an intron of SLC8A1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs10490045

What is rs10490045?

rs10490045 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC8A1 gene. Published research associates it with fracture. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10490045 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 rs10490045 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30598549. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
