near ATP8B2 · rs60935551

What the study found

Who was studied 114,799 African American or Afro-Caribbean individuals, 55,776 Hispanic or Latin American individuals, 5,949 East Asian ancestry individuals, 407,168 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.133 lower (95% confidence interval 0.1-0.16); p = 8 × 10−19.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 99% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q21.3 — between genes, 9.5 kb from ATP8B2.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to platelet count (minimum, inv-norm transformed). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to platelet count (minimum, inv-norm transformed). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to platelet count (minimum, inv-norm transformed). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs60935551

What is rs60935551?

rs60935551 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ATP8B2 gene. Published research associates it with platelet count (minimum, 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 rs60935551 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 rs60935551 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.
