Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration

RP11-661C8.3 · rs113881833

What the study found

Who was studied 408,112 British individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0323 lower (95% confidence interval 0.022-0.042); p = 7 × 10−13.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 5% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5p15.33 — in an intron of LINC02982.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs113881833

What is rs113881833?

rs113881833 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RP11-661C8.3 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs113881833 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 rs113881833 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.
