What the study found

Who was studied 394,642 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0772 higher (95% confidence interval 0.055-0.1); p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q35 — a missense change in ABCB6.

What ClinVar records

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 Reticulocyte count (UKB data field 30250). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Reticulocyte count (UKB data field 30250). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Reticulocyte count (UKB data field 30250). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs145526996

What is rs145526996?

rs145526996 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ABCB6 gene. Published research associates it with reticulocyte count (ukb data field 30250). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs145526996 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 rs145526996 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 rs145526996 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.
