Corpus callosum posterior body area

HBEGF · rs4150214

What the study found

Who was studied 46,685 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 4,765 non-European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.475 lower (95% confidence interval 0.34-0.61); p = 1 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q31.3 — in an intron of HBEGF.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Corpus callosum posterior body area. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Corpus callosum posterior body area. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Corpus callosum posterior body area. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4150214

What is rs4150214?

rs4150214 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HBEGF gene. Published research associates it with corpus callosum posterior body area. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4150214 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 rs4150214 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:41188267. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
