CDC42BPA · rs114537871

What the study found

Who was studied 24,493 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.027 mm2 higher (95% confidence interval 0.019-0.035); p = 8 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 8% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q42.13 — between genes, 20.5 kb from LINC01641.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs114537871

What is rs114537871?

rs114537871 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CDC42BPA gene. Published research associates it with optic cup area. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs114537871 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 rs114537871 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Communications biology 2019, PMID:31798171. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
