Well-being spectrum (multivariate analysis)

SOX5 · rs4581549

What the study found

Who was studied 2,083,151 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 287,239 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.00863 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0058-0.0114); p = 1 × 10−9.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 12% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12p12.1 — in an intron of SOX5.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Well-being spectrum (multivariate analysis) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Well-being spectrum (multivariate analysis).
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Well-being spectrum (multivariate analysis) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs4581549

What is rs4581549?

rs4581549 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SOX5 gene. Published research associates it with well-being spectrum (multivariate analysis). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4581549 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 rs4581549 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2019, PMID:30643256. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
