RBC levels of 9,10,EpOME

EPHX2 · rs2322721

What the study found

Who was studied 243 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.85 lower (95% confidence interval 0.6-1.1); p = 4 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 89% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.2 — in an intron of EPHX2.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to RBC levels of 9,10,EpOME. 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 RBC levels of 9,10,EpOME. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to RBC levels of 9,10,EpOME. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs2322721

What is rs2322721?

rs2322721 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EPHX2 gene. Published research associates it with rbc levels of 9,10,epome. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2322721 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 rs2322721 come from?

GWAS Catalog, The Journal of biological chemistry 2022, PMID:36395887. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
