What the study found

Who was studied 5,001 European ancestry cases, 6,243 European ancestry controls, 8,832 cases, 12,067 controls; replicated in 4,801 European ancestry cases, 4,741 European ancestry controls, 2,612 European and unknown ancestry cases, 15,021 European and unknown ancestry controls, 581 trios.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.67 times the odds of Schizophrenia (95% confidence interval 1.63-1.71); p = 9 × 10−14.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 76% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.32 — in an intron of HLA-DRB9.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs114002140

What is rs114002140?

rs114002140 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HLA-DRB9 gene. Published research associates it with schizophrenia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs114002140 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Schizophrenia. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs114002140 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 rs114002140 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2013, PMID:23974872. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
