Hedgehog-interacting protein levels

HHIP · rs12507436

What the study found

Who was studied 3,506 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.186 lower (95% confidence interval 0.14-0.23); p = 6 × 10−16.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 47% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q31.21 — in an intron of HHIP.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Hedgehog-interacting protein levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Hedgehog-interacting protein levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Hedgehog-interacting protein levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs12507436

What is rs12507436?

rs12507436 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HHIP gene. Published research associates it with hedgehog-interacting protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12507436 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 rs12507436 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39528825. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
