ADAM32 · rs117705146

What the study found

Who was studied 1,382 White British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.94 lower; p = 4 × 10−9.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 99% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p11.22 — in an intron of ADAM32.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Herpes simplex virus 2 mgG-1 antibody levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Herpes simplex virus 2 mgG-1 antibody levels.
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Herpes simplex virus 2 mgG-1 antibody levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs117705146

What is rs117705146?

rs117705146 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ADAM32 gene. Published research associates it with herpes simplex virus 2 mgg-1 antibody levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs117705146 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 rs117705146 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Open Forum Infect Dis 2020, PMID:33204752. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
