What the study found

Who was studied 350,468 European ancestry individuals, 135,482 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0279 higher (95% confidence interval 0.024-0.032); p = 2 × 10−36.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q21 — in an intron of CCDC162P.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs11961369

What is rs11961369?

rs11961369 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCDC162P gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11961369 linked to?

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

Does having rs11961369 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 rs11961369 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
