Who was studied 1,263 European ancestry cases, 34,887 European ancestry controls; replicated in 2,175 European ancestry cases, 2,064 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele carried 1.27 times the odds of Glaucoma (primary open-angle) (95% confidence interval 1.18-1.36); p = 2 × 10−11.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 23% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q31.2 — between genes, 2.3 kb from CAV1.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Glaucoma (primary open-angle). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Glaucoma (primary open-angle). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Glaucoma (primary open-angle). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
rs4236601 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CAV1 gene. Published research associates it with glaucoma (primary open-angle). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs4236601 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Glaucoma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs4236601 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 rs4236601 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2010, PMID:20835238. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
