What the study found

Who was studied 408,112 British individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0192 higher (95% confidence interval 0.014-0.025); p = 4 × 10−12.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 20% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q24 — in an intron of HPS3.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Mean spheric corpuscular volume compared to the general population.
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Mean spheric corpuscular volume.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Mean spheric corpuscular volume — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs2085501

What is rs2085501?

rs2085501 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HPS3 gene. Published research associates it with mean spheric corpuscular volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2085501 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 rs2085501 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 rs2085501 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
