What the study found

Who was studied 114 African ancestry schizophrenia cases, 69 African schizo-affective cases, 41 African ancestry bipolar disorder cases, 76 African ancestry controls, 116 European ancestry schizophrenia cases, 86 European ancestry schizo-affective cases, 165 European ancestry bipolar disorder cases, 182 European ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is G; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 5 × 10−8.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 16% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.3 — between genes, 36.2 kb from LOC100129616.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Initial pursuit acceleration — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Initial pursuit acceleration.
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Initial pursuit acceleration compared to the general population.

Questions about rs144819560

What is rs144819560?

rs144819560 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NRSN1 gene. Published research associates it with initial pursuit acceleration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs144819560 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 rs144819560 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Transl Psychiatry 2017, PMID:29064472. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
