What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of IgA nephropathy compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:22197929)
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with IgA nephropathy. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:22197929)
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of IgA nephropathy — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:22197929)

Questions about rs12537

What is rs12537?

rs12537 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MTMR3 gene. Published research associates it with iga nephropathy. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12537 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 rs12537 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:22197929. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
