Color vision defects (Deutan-Protan)

ASXL3 · rs150558318

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−7, 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 31 Silk Road (founder/genetic isolate) cases, 483 Silk Road (founder/genetic isolate) controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.386 lower (95% confidence interval 0.25-0.52); p = 4 × 10−8.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 99% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q12.1 — in an intron of ASXL3.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Color vision defects (Deutan-Protan). 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 Color vision defects (Deutan-Protan). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Color vision defects (Deutan-Protan). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs150558318

What is rs150558318?

rs150558318 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ASXL3 gene. Published research associates it with color vision defects (deutan-protan). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs150558318 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 rs150558318 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Frontiers in genetics 2023, PMID:37359372. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
