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 531,774 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.424 SD unit higher (95% confidence interval 0.31-0.54); p = 1 × 10−12.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 0% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 22, band 22q13.1 — in a non-coding transcript of EIF3L.
What each result means
A/A
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Red cell distribution width compared to the general population.
A/G
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Red cell distribution width.
G/G
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Red cell distribution width — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs184901441
What is rs184901441?
rs184901441 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EIF3L gene. Published research associates it with red cell distribution width. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs184901441 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 rs184901441 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888493. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
