Questions about rs41275110

What is rs41275110?

rs41275110 is a single position in the genome, in or near the COL4A2 gene. Published research associates it with male-pattern baldness. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs41275110 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Androgenetic Alopecia (Male Pattern Baldness). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs41275110 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 rs41275110 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2018, PMID:30573740. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
