near PRMT5P1 · rs58721068

What the study found

Who was studied 2,820 Japanese ancestry cases, 192,383 Japanese ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 0.81 times the odds of Cerebral aneurysm (95% confidence interval 0.768011754-0.862569481); p = 4 × 10−12.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 32% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q31.22 — between genes, 7.2 kb from PRMT5P1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs58721068

What is rs58721068?

rs58721068 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near PRMT5P1 gene. Published research associates it with cerebral aneurysm. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs58721068 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 rs58721068 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:32514122. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
