What the study found

Who was studied 696,882 African American or Afro-Caribbean, African ancestry, European ancestry, East Asian ancestry, Hispanic or Latin American and South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10−13.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 3% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12p13.1 — in an intron of GPRC5D-AS1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs11055177

What is rs11055177?

rs11055177 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GPRC5D-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11055177 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 rs11055177 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 rs11055177 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888493. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
