RBP4 · rs10882272

What the study found

Who was studied 5,006 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 1,124 European ancestry individuals, 3,764 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.03 ug/L lower (95% confidence interval 0.02-0.04); p = 7 × 10−15.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q23.33 — in the 3′ untranslated region of FFAR4.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs10882272

What is rs10882272?

rs10882272 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RBP4 gene. Published research associates it with retinol levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10882272 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 rs10882272 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2011, PMID:21878437. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
