What the study found

Who was studied 4,570 European ancestry female individuals; replicated in 2,008 European ancestry female individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 17.7 umol/L lower; p = 5 × 10−29.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 20% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q34.2 — in an intron of ABO.

What ClinVar records

Classification association for ABO blood group system; no assertion criteria provided (0 of 4 stars, 1 submitter), last evaluated 2021-05-01. ClinVar record 1172911 NC_000009.12:g.133273983A>G

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

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Soluble ICAM-1. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Soluble ICAM-1. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Soluble ICAM-1. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs507666

What is rs507666?

rs507666 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ABO gene. Published research associates it with soluble icam-1. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What do people read about alongside rs507666?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include heart and circulation (1 papers), brain and memory (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs507666 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 rs507666 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2008, PMID:18604267. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
