What the study found

Who was studied 24,167 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 9,456 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.06 g/dl higher (95% confidence interval 0.05-0.08); p = 7 × 10−13.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p21 — in an intron of PRKCE.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs10495928

What is rs10495928?

rs10495928 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PRKCE gene. Published research associates it with hemoglobin. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs10495928 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 rs10495928 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 rs10495928 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2009, PMID:19862010. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
