Corneal resistance factor

near NIP7P1 · rs12778515

What the study found

Who was studied 76,029 white-British ancestry individuals; replicated in 10,130 non white-British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0567 higher (95% confidence interval 0.039-0.075); p = 1 × 10−9.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 57% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q23.33 — between genes, 14.1 kb from NIP7P1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12778515

What is rs12778515?

rs12778515 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near NIP7P1 gene. Published research associates it with corneal resistance factor. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12778515 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 rs12778515 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Communications biology 2020, PMID:33311554. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
