mean corpuscular volume (MCV, mean, inv-norm transformed)

MEF2C-AS1 · rs148941265

Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 114,862 African American or Afro-Caribbean individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.232 higher (95% confidence interval 0.19-0.27); p = 1 × 10−28.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 98% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q14.3 — in an intron of MEF2C-AS1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to mean corpuscular volume (MCV, mean, inv-norm transformed). 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 mean corpuscular volume (MCV, mean, inv-norm transformed). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to mean corpuscular volume (MCV, mean, inv-norm transformed). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs148941265

What is rs148941265?

rs148941265 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MEF2C-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular volume (mcv, mean, inv-norm transformed). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs148941265 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 rs148941265 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
