Questions about rs12823424

What is rs12823424?

rs12823424 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CACNA1C gene. Published research associates it with schizophrenia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12823424 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Schizophrenia. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs12823424 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 rs12823424 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Am J Med Genet B Neuropsychiatr Genet 2015, PMID:26198764. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
