Caudate nucleus volume

FAT3 · rs3133370

What the study found

Who was studied 37,741 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 341 South East and East Asian ancestry individuals, 769 African American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 7.45 z score higher; p = 1 × 10−13.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 66% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q14.3 — in an intron of FAT3.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Caudate nucleus volume. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Caudate nucleus volume. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Caudate nucleus volume. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs3133370

What is rs3133370?

rs3133370 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FAT3 gene. Published research associates it with caudate nucleus volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs3133370 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 rs3133370 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:31636452. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
