What the study found

Who was studied 524,923 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0205 SD unit lower (95% confidence interval 0.015-0.026); p = 2 × 10−15.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 16% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q11.2 — inside PABPN1.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2021-03-28. ClinVar record 1232806 NM_004643.4(PABPN1):c.730-42C>T

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-19 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs45528934

What is rs45528934?

rs45528934 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PABPN1 gene. Published research associates it with lymphocyte count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs45528934 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 rs45528934 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888493. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
