What the study found

Who was studied 350,470 European ancestry individuals, 154,355 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0232 lower (95% confidence interval 0.019-0.027); p = 1 × 10−32.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q24.3 — in an intron of NOSTRIN.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs527393

What is rs527393?

rs527393 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NOSTRIN gene. Published research associates it with white blood cell count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs527393 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs527393 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 rs527393 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
