Total testosterone levels

near LINC03114 · rs113318535

What the study found

Who was studied 27,521 African American or Afro-Caribbean males.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.065 higher (95% confidence interval 0.049-0.081); p = 1 × 10−15.

Where it sits Chromosome X, band Xp22.31 — between genes, 18 kb from LINC03114.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs113318535

What is rs113318535?

rs113318535 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC03114 gene. Published research associates it with total testosterone levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs113318535 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 rs113318535 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40316537. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
