Eosinophil forward scatter

SLC43A3 · rs2241899

What the study found

Who was studied 30,352 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.176 SD units higher (95% confidence interval 0.16-0.19); p = 7 × 10−82.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q12.1 — in an intron of SLC43A3.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Eosinophil forward scatter. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Eosinophil forward scatter. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Eosinophil forward scatter. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2241899

What is rs2241899?

rs2241899 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC43A3 gene. Published research associates it with eosinophil forward scatter. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2241899 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 rs2241899 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37596262. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
