Free triiodothyronine (T3) levels

near CTDSPL2P2 · rs12687280

What the study found

Who was studied 2,832 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 1,104 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.188 pmol/L lower; p = 2 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 13% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome X, band Xq22.3 — between genes, 6.7 kb from CTDSPL2P2.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Free triiodothyronine (T3) levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Free triiodothyronine (T3) levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Free triiodothyronine (T3) levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs12687280

What is rs12687280?

rs12687280 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CTDSPL2P2 gene. Published research associates it with free triiodothyronine (t3) levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12687280 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 rs12687280 come from?

GWAS Catalog, European journal of endocrinology 2021, PMID:34524976. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
