ASXL2 · rs34731601

What the study found

Who was studied 114,851 African American or Afro-Caribbean individuals, 55,797 Hispanic or Latin American individuals, 5,942 East Asian ancestry individuals, 407,345 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0239 higher (95% confidence interval 0.018-0.03); p = 4 × 10−16.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 58% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p23.3 — in an intron of ASXL2.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC, mean, inv-norm transformed). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC, mean, inv-norm transformed). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC, mean, inv-norm transformed). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs34731601

What is rs34731601?

rs34731601 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ASXL2 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (mchc, mean, inv-norm transformed). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs34731601 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 rs34731601 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
