near SPRR4 · rs57877962

What the study found

Who was studied 98,055 African American or Afro-Caribbean individuals, 47,410 Hispanic or Latin American individuals, 4,652 East Asian ancestry individuals, 335,542 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0429 lower (95% confidence interval 0.032-0.054); p = 4 × 10−15.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 90% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q21.3 — between genes, 1.8 kb from SPRR4.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of eosinophil (fraction, maximum, inv-norm transformed) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with eosinophil (fraction, maximum, inv-norm transformed).
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of eosinophil (fraction, maximum, inv-norm transformed) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs57877962

What is rs57877962?

rs57877962 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near SPRR4 gene. Published research associates it with eosinophil (fraction, maximum, inv-norm transformed). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs57877962 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 rs57877962 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
