Optic disc size

DAAM1 · rs35285683

What the study found

Who was studied 67,040 British ancestry individuals; replicated in 28,509 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.02 lower; p = 2 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 85% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q23.1 — inside LINC01500.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Optic disc size. 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 Optic disc size. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Optic disc size. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs35285683

What is rs35285683?

rs35285683 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DAAM1 gene. Published research associates it with optic disc size. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs35285683 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 rs35285683 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2019, PMID:31809533. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
