Cerebrospinal fluid protein CD300A levels

POC1B-GALNT4 · rs2230281

What the study found

Who was studied 2,524 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.332 higher (95% confidence interval 0.3-0.36); p = 1 × 10−87.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 28% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q21.33 — a missense change in POC1B-GALNT4.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal fluid protein CD300A levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal fluid protein CD300A levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal fluid protein CD300A levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs2230281

What is rs2230281?

rs2230281 is a single position in the genome, in or near the POC1B-GALNT4 gene. Published research associates it with cerebrospinal fluid protein cd300a levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2230281 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 rs2230281 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science translational medicine 2026, PMID:42054495. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
