Questions about rs36052053

What is rs36052053?

rs36052053 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C6orf183 gene. Published research associates it with red cell distribution width. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs36052053 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 rs36052053 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2016, PMID:27863252. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
