Who was studied 172,925 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0443 lower (95% confidence interval 0.037-0.051); p = 6 × 10−35.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 43% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 22, band 22q12.3 — between genes, 1.5 kb from TMPRSS6.
What each result means
C/CTwo copies of the version the research linked to Hemoglobin concentration. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Hemoglobin concentration. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Hemoglobin concentration. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
rs5756519 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TMPRSS6 gene. Published research associates it with hemoglobin concentration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs5756519 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 rs5756519 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 rs5756519 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Cell 2016, PMID:27863252. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
