Who was studied 41,917 European ancestry cases, 371,549 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele carried 1.06 times the odds of Bipolar disorder (95% confidence interval 1.05-1.08); p = 3 × 10−10.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 62% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p13.2 — between genes, 15.3 kb from HAPSTR1.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Bipolar disorder — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Bipolar disorder.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Bipolar disorder compared to the general population.

Questions about rs28455634
What is rs28455634?
rs28455634 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C16orf72 gene. Published research associates it with bipolar disorder. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs28455634 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Bipolar Disorder. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs28455634 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 rs28455634 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34002096. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
