Myeloid cell surface antigen CD33 levels

CD33 · rs12461354

What the study found

Who was studied 10,708 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.153 lower (95% confidence interval 0.1-0.2); p = 6 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 8% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.41 — in an intron of CD33.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Myeloid cell surface antigen CD33 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 Myeloid cell surface antigen CD33 levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Myeloid cell surface antigen CD33 levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs12461354

What is rs12461354?

rs12461354 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CD33 gene. Published research associates it with myeloid cell surface antigen cd33 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12461354 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 rs12461354 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2021, PMID:34648354. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
