What the study found

Who was studied 135,458 European ancestry cases, 344,901 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.03 times the odds of Depression (95% confidence interval 1.02-1.04); p = 3 × 10−8.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 41% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7p21.3 — in an intron of TMEM106B.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs10950398

What is rs10950398?

rs10950398 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TMEM106B 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 rs10950398 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Depression (Self-Reported Symptoms). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs10950398 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 rs10950398 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:29700475. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
