Unique cartilage matrix-associated protein levels (UCMA.10977.55.3)

UCMA · rs2147278

What the study found

Who was studied 3,301 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.21 higher (95% confidence interval 0.15-0.27); p = 4 × 10−16.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10p13 — in an intron of UCMA.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Unique cartilage matrix-associated protein levels (UCMA.10977.55.3). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Unique cartilage matrix-associated protein levels (UCMA.10977.55.3). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Unique cartilage matrix-associated protein levels (UCMA.10977.55.3). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2147278

What is rs2147278?

rs2147278 is a single position in the genome, in or near the UCMA gene. Published research associates it with unique cartilage matrix-associated protein levels (ucma.10977.55.3). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2147278 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 rs2147278 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2018, PMID:29875488. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
