LOC100506393 · rs11045000

What the study found

Who was studied 1,112 Japanese ancestry cases, 6,810 Japanese ancestry controls; replicated in 548 Japanese ancestry cases, 6,469 Japanese ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.28 times the odds of Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine (95% confidence interval 1.19-1.38); p = 3 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 46% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12p12.2 — in an intron of LINC02398.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine. 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 Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs11045000

What is rs11045000?

rs11045000 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LOC100506393 gene. Published research associates it with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11045000 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 rs11045000 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:25064007. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
