Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta levels

PDGFRB · rs192653021

What the study found

Who was studied 2,935 Qatari ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.437 lower (95% confidence interval 0.32-0.56); p = 6 × 10−13.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 5% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q32 — in an intron of PDGFRB.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs192653021

What is rs192653021?

rs192653021 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PDGFRB gene. Published research associates it with platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs192653021 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 rs192653021 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2023, PMID:36168886. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
