Where this position leads

Condition: Depression (Self-Reported Symptoms)

What the study found

Who was studied 298,420 Korculan (founder/genetic isolate), Split (founder/genetic isolate), Vis (founder/genetic isolate), Erasmus Rucphen (founder/genetic isolate) and other European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0177 lower (95% confidence interval 0.012-0.024); p = 1 × 10⁻⁸.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 24% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q31.1 — in an intron of RAPGEF6.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Subjective well-being. 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 Subjective well-being. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Subjective well-being. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs3756290

What is rs3756290?

rs3756290 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RAPGEF6 gene. Published research associates it with subjective well-being. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs3756290 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Depression (Self-Reported Symptoms). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs3756290 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 rs3756290 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27089181. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
