Strength of the evidence

2 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−21, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 394,642 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.119 higher (95% confidence interval 0.092-0.146); p = 3 × 10−21.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 0% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5p13.3 — a missense change in NPR3.

Change history MyGeneLog™ keeps a copy of every weekly release from 2026-10-19 and compares them. This position's classification has not changed since.

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

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Standing height (UKB data field 50). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Standing height (UKB data field 50). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Standing height (UKB data field 50). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs146301345

What is rs146301345?

rs146301345 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NPR3 gene. Published research associates it with standing height (ukb data field 50). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs146301345 linked to?

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

Does having rs146301345 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 rs146301345 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.
