What the study found

Who was studied 595 European ancestry cases, 2,718 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 4.49 times the odds of Early-onset myasthenia gravis (95% confidence interval 3.62-5.57); p = 4 × 10−42.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 9% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.33 — in an intron of LINC01149.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Early-onset myasthenia gravis. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Early-onset myasthenia gravis. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Early-onset myasthenia gravis. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs3093958

What is rs3093958?

rs3093958 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC01149 gene. Published research associates it with early-onset myasthenia gravis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs3093958 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Myasthenia Gravis. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs3093958 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 rs3093958 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 2022, PMID:35074870. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
