Vertex-wise cortical surface area

DSTYK · rs17345153

What the study found

Who was studied 33,748 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 6.6 z score higher; p = 4 × 10−11.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 42% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q32.1 — in an intron of DSTYK.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Vertex-wise cortical surface area — 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 Vertex-wise cortical surface area.
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Vertex-wise cortical surface area compared to the general population.

Questions about rs17345153

What is rs17345153?

rs17345153 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DSTYK gene. Published research associates it with vertex-wise cortical surface area. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs17345153 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 rs17345153 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science advances 2021, PMID:34910505. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
