What the study found

Who was studied 15,056 European ancestry cases, 18,618 European ancestry proxy cases, 449,056 European ancestry controls; replicated in 22,632 European ancestry cases, 968,735 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.093 higher (95% confidence interval 0.071-0.115); p = 4 × 10−16.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 74% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p23.1 — in an intron of CTSB.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Parkinson's disease or first degree relation to individual with Parkinson's disease compared to the general population.
A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Parkinson's disease or first degree relation to individual with Parkinson's disease.
C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Parkinson's disease or first degree relation to individual with Parkinson's disease — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs1293298

What is rs1293298?

rs1293298 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CTSB gene. Published research associates it with parkinson's disease or first degree relation to individual with parkinson's disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1293298 linked to?

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

Does having rs1293298 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 rs1293298 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Lancet Neurol 2019, PMID:31701892. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
