Hepcidin concentration

SORD · rs2600895

What the study found

Who was studied 91,675 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0815 higher (95% confidence interval 0.058-0.105); p = 3 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 91% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q21.1 — in an intron of SORD.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Hepcidin concentration. 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 Hepcidin concentration. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Hepcidin concentration. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs2600895

What is rs2600895?

rs2600895 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SORD gene. Published research associates it with hepcidin concentration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2600895 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 rs2600895 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Communications biology 2024, PMID:39643614. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
