What the study found

Who was studied 677 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 120,312 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 1,690 European ancestry cases, 447,649 European ancestry controls, 256 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 59,386 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 2.68 lower (95% confidence interval 2.64-2.72); p = 2 × 10−11.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q12.3 — between genes, 245.5 kb from KC6.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Nephritis and nephropathy with pathological lesion (PheCode 580.32). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Nephritis and nephropathy with pathological lesion (PheCode 580.32). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Nephritis and nephropathy with pathological lesion (PheCode 580.32). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs191639407

What is rs191639407?

rs191639407 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KC6 gene. Published research associates it with nephritis and nephropathy with pathological lesion (phecode 580.32). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs191639407 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Nephritis and Nephropathy with Pathological Lesion. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs191639407 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 rs191639407 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.
