Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 393,161 European ancestry individuals, 4,227 African ancestry individuals, 1,564 East Asian ancestry individuals, 4,270 South Asian ancestry individuals, 2,798 Hispanic or Latin American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 16.2 z score lower; p = 3 × 10⁻⁵⁹.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q23 — in an intron of THSD4.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Peak expiratory flow. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Peak expiratory flow. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Peak expiratory flow. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4337253

What is rs4337253?

rs4337253 is a single position in the genome, in or near the THSD4 gene. Published research associates it with peak expiratory flow. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4337253 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 rs4337253 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:36914875. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
