What the study found

Who was studied 47,745 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0891 lower (95% confidence interval 0.077-0.101); p = 1 × 10−56.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 72% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q33.1 — a missense change in TNC.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for Autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss 56; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 4 submitters), last evaluated 2021-09-10. ClinVar record 1259794 NM_002160.4(TNC):c.6022G>C (p.Glu2008Gln)

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-19 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs13321

What is rs13321?

rs13321 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TNC gene. Published research associates it with tnc protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs13321 linked to?

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

Does having rs13321 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 rs13321 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39789286. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
