What the study found

Who was studied 170,143 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0259 lower (95% confidence interval 0.019-0.033); p = 4 × 10−13.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 51% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q42.13 — in an intron of COQ8A.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign; criteria provided, single submitter (1 of 4 stars, 1 submitter), last evaluated 2018-06-14. ClinVar record 683201 NM_020247.5(COQ8A):c.1660-262T>A

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 Sum basophil neutrophil counts. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Sum basophil neutrophil counts. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Sum basophil neutrophil counts. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs17592479

What is rs17592479?

rs17592479 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ADCK3 gene. Published research associates it with sum basophil neutrophil counts. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs17592479 linked to?

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

Does having rs17592479 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 rs17592479 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2016, PMID:27863252. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
