SPON1 · rs117277599

What the study found

Who was studied 327,435 European ancestry individuals, 5,845 African ancestry individuals, 6,425 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0499 higher (95% confidence interval 0.035-0.065); p = 4 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p15.2 — in an intron of SPON1.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Vitamin D levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Vitamin D levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Vitamin D levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs117277599

What is rs117277599?

rs117277599 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SPON1 gene. Published research associates it with vitamin d levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs117277599 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 rs117277599 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:33462484. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
