What the study found

Who was studied 1,067,913 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 228,033 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0057 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0038-0.0076); p = 2 × 10−9.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 44% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p36.12 — between genes, 9.5 kb from ECE1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12131134

What is rs12131134?

rs12131134 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ECE1 gene. Published research associates it with depressive symptoms. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12131134 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 rs12131134 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30643256. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
