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 523 European ancestry schizophrenia cases, 100 Latino schizophrenia cases, 827 European ancestry controls, 83 Latino controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.616 lower (95% confidence interval 0.41-0.82); p = 2 × 10⁻⁸.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q11.2 — a missense change in AJUBA.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Spatial processing compared to the general population.

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Spatial processing.

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Spatial processing — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs45543740

What is rs45543740?

rs45543740 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AJUBA gene. Published research associates it with spatial processing. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs45543740 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 rs45543740 come from?

GWAS Catalog, JAMA Psychiatry 2019, PMID:31596458. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
