What the study found

Who was studied 3,598 Qatari ancestry cases, 2,287 Qatari ancestry controls; replicated in 4,641 Qatari ancestry cases, 3,126 Qatari ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 0% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.42 — inside RDH13.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs1268647997

What is rs1268647997?

rs1268647997 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RDH13 gene. Published research associates it with vitamin d deficiency. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1268647997 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Vitamin D Deficiency and the GC Gene. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs1268647997 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 rs1268647997 come from?

GWAS Catalog, International journal of molecular sciences 2025, PMID:41096749. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
