What the study found

Who was studied 408,112 British individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0216 lower (95% confidence interval 0.015-0.028); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 12% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p16.3 — between genes, 6.8 kb from PPP1R21-DT.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of High light scatter reticulocyte percentage of red cells — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with High light scatter reticulocyte percentage of red cells.
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of High light scatter reticulocyte percentage of red cells compared to the general population.

Questions about rs112477875

What is rs112477875?

rs112477875 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near PPP1R21-DT gene. Published research associates it with high light scatter reticulocyte percentage of red cells. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs112477875 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 rs112477875 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
