Leukocyte telomere length

RRP12 · rs3737194

What the study found

Who was studied 327,790 British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.015 higher (95% confidence interval 0.011-0.019); p = 4 × 10−9.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 32% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q24.1 — in an intron of RRP12.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Leukocyte telomere length. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Leukocyte telomere length. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Leukocyte telomere length. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs3737194

What is rs3737194?

rs3737194 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RRP12 gene. Published research associates it with leukocyte telomere length. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs3737194 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 rs3737194 come from?

GWAS Catalog, GeroScience 2024, PMID:38837026. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
