Lewy body dementia (MTAG)

UBQLN4 · rs35603727

What the study found

Who was studied 2,591 European ancestry cases, 4,027 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 9.49 Z score higher; p = 2 × 10−21.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q22 — in an intron of UBQLN4.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Lewy body dementia (MTAG). 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 Lewy body dementia (MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Lewy body dementia (MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs35603727

What is rs35603727?

rs35603727 is a single position in the genome, in or near the UBQLN4 gene. Published research associates it with lewy body dementia (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs35603727 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 rs35603727 come from?

GWAS Catalog, BMC medicine 2022, PMID:35729600. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
