Thyroid peroxidase antibody levels

MAG13 · rs1230666

What the study found

Who was studied 12,353 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 8,159 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0269 higher (95% confidence interval 0.014-0.039); p = 2 × 10−8.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 16% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p13.2 — in an intron of MAGI3.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Thyroid peroxidase antibody levels. 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 Thyroid peroxidase antibody levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Thyroid peroxidase antibody levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Multi-ancestry genome-wide association analyses provide insights into the genetic basis of Hashimoto's thyroiditis

Bujnis MN, et al. (Nature Genetics, 2026) is newly in the GWAS Catalog, with 422 associations across 1 trait ("Hashimoto thyroiditis"). The catalogue records its sample as 47,104 cases and 1,037,695 controls. Of its 299 positions, 93 already have pages here — 20 on the Hypothyroidism page; 20 on the Hashimoto Thyroiditis page; 5 on the Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Levels page — including rs3130552 (near PSORS1C1), rs1230666 (MAG13), rs231725 (CTLA4). Everything above is from the catalogue's records, assembled by code; the paper itself is linked. PMID:42527560.

Questions about rs1230666

What is rs1230666?

rs1230666 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MAG13 gene. Published research associates it with thyroid peroxidase 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 rs1230666 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 rs1230666 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2014, PMID:24586183. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
