Immature fraction of reticulocytes

MARCH3 · rs34821177

What the study found

Who was studied 408,112 British individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0435 higher (95% confidence interval 0.03-0.057); p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 3% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q23.2 — a missense change in MARCHF3.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Immature fraction of reticulocytes — 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 Immature fraction of reticulocytes.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Immature fraction of reticulocytes compared to the general population.

Questions about rs34821177

What is rs34821177?

rs34821177 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MARCH3 gene. Published research associates it with immature fraction of reticulocytes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs34821177 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 rs34821177 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
