Questions about rs4280164

What is rs4280164?

rs4280164 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C14orf21 gene. Published research associates it with parent of origin effect on language impairment (paternal). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4280164 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 rs4280164 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genes Brain Behav 2014, PMID:24571439. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
