KIAA0930 · rs5765229

What the study found

Who was studied 408,112 British individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0183 lower (95% confidence interval 0.014-0.023); p = 3 × 10−16.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 50% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 22, band 22q13.31 — between genes, 2 kb from KIAA0930.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs5765229

What is rs5765229?

rs5765229 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KIAA0930 gene. Published research associates it with basophil count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs5765229 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 rs5765229 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
