near EN1 · rs13005242

What the study found

Who was studied 11,079 Korean ancestry individuals; replicated in 5,940 Korean ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.15 higher; p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 38% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q14.2 — between genes, 0.4 kb from EN1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs13005242

What is rs13005242?

rs13005242 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near EN1 gene. Published research associates it with facial wrinkles (under eye). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs13005242 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 rs13005242 come from?

GWAS Catalog, The Journal of investigative dermatology 2022, PMID:35421404. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
