What the study found

Who was studied at least 5,919 European ancestry cases, at least 130,691 European ancestry controls; replicated in 634,037 European ancestry cases, 1,308,690 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0171 higher (95% confidence interval 0.012-0.022); p = 5 × 10−13.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 35% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q22.31 — in an intron of FAM120A.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Depression. 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 Depression. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Depression. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs10821130

What is rs10821130?

rs10821130 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FAM120A gene. Published research associates it with depression. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs10821130 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Endometriosis and Depression: Shared Genetics. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs10821130 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 rs10821130 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature human behaviour 2021, PMID:33859377. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
