Who was studied 172,952 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0279 lower (95% confidence interval 0.021-0.035); p = 3 × 10−14.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 46% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 22, band 22q13.31 — in an intron of FBLN1.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Red blood cell count — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Red blood cell count.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Red blood cell count compared to the general population.
rs5765524 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FBLN1 gene. Published research associates it with red 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 rs5765524 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 rs5765524 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 rs5765524 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.
