PLEC · rs35139934

Where this position leads

Condition: Alzheimer's Disease Risk (APOE)

What the study found

Who was studied 36,675 European ancestry cases, up to 42,034 European ancestry maternal or paternal cases, up to 372,760 European ancestry controls; replicated in 19,087 European ancestry cases, 39,101 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.10 times the odds of Alzheimer's disease (95% confidence interval 1.06-1.13); p = 3 × 10⁻⁸.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.3 — a synonymous change in PLEC.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Alzheimer's disease. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Alzheimer's disease. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Alzheimer's disease. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs35139934

What is rs35139934?

rs35139934 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PLEC gene. Published research associates it with alzheimer's disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs35139934 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Alzheimer's Disease Risk (APOE). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs35139934 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 rs35139934 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:34099642. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
