Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 313,387 European ancestry individuals, 5,576 African ancestry individuals, 6,696 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.123 higher (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.13); p = 4 × 10⁻²⁰⁰.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q21.1 — in the 5′ untranslated region of KPNA1.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Calcium levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Calcium levels.

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Calcium levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs28384492

What is rs28384492?

rs28384492 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KPNA1 gene. Published research associates it with calcium levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs28384492 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 rs28384492 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:33462484. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
