Verbal declarative memory

HS3ST4 · rs11074779

What the study found

Who was studied Up to 27,337 European ancestry individuals, up to 472 Korkulan individuals, up to 1,267 Erasmus Rucphen Family individuals; replicated in Up to 10,617 European ancestry individuals, up to 3,811 African American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.403 higher (95% confidence interval 0.26-0.55); p = 3 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 19% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p12.1 — between genes, 144.6 kb from LINC02195.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Verbal declarative memory. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Verbal declarative memory. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Verbal declarative memory. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs11074779

What is rs11074779?

rs11074779 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HS3ST4 gene. Published research associates it with verbal declarative memory. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11074779 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 rs11074779 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Biological psychiatry 2015, PMID:25648963. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
