Skin phototype score

near ADAMTS12 · rs11742467

What the study found

Who was studied 4,933 Iberian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 3.95 higher (95% confidence interval 3.3-4.6); p = 2 × 10−32.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 20% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5p13.2 — between genes, 7.6 kb from ADAMTS12.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Skin phototype score. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Skin phototype score. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Skin phototype score. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs11742467

What is rs11742467?

rs11742467 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ADAMTS12 gene. Published research associates it with skin phototype score. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11742467 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 rs11742467 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genes 2023, PMID:36672889. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
