Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What the study found
Who was studied 21,758 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 9,173 individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.78 higher; p = 1 × 10−239.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 94% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10p14 — a missense change in ITIH2.
What each result means
A/A
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Pentraxin-related protein PTX3 levels compared to the general population.
A/G
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Pentraxin-related protein PTX3 levels.
G/G
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Pentraxin-related protein PTX3 levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs35524242
What is rs35524242?
rs35524242 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ITIH2 gene. Published research associates it with pentraxin-related protein ptx3 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs35524242 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 rs35524242 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature metabolism 2020, PMID:33067605. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
