What the study found

Who was studied 24,167 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 9,456 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.06 g/dl higher (95% confidence interval 0.04-0.08); p = 1 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q24.12 — in an intron of ATXN2-AS.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs11065987

What is rs11065987?

rs11065987 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TRAFD1 gene. Published research associates it with hemoglobin. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11065987 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.

What do people read about alongside rs11065987?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include blood sugar and insulin (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs11065987 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 rs11065987 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2009, PMID:19862010. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
