What the study found

Who was studied 38,000 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.34 lower (95% confidence interval 1.28-1.4); p = 1 × 10−300.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p15.4 — between genes, 1.1 kb from OR52E2.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Mean corpuscular hemoglobin. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Mean corpuscular hemoglobin. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Mean corpuscular hemoglobin. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs372385231

What is rs372385231?

rs372385231 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near OR52E2 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular hemoglobin. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs372385231 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs372385231 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 rs372385231 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:39414775. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
