What the study found

Who was studied 354,862 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0132 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0085-0.0179); p = 5 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p21.31 — between genes, 2.7 kb from IHO1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4955417

What is rs4955417?

rs4955417 is a single position in the genome, in or near the IHO1 gene. Published research associates it with depressive symptoms (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs4955417 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Depression (Self-Reported Symptoms). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs4955417 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 rs4955417 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:29292387. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
