The effect
The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size
; p = 1 × 10−12.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 9% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q23.33 — between genes, 15.5 kb from XRCC6P1.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Meniere's disease compared to the general population.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Meniere's disease.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Meniere's disease — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs61861121
What is rs61861121?
rs61861121 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near XRCC6P1 gene. Published research associates it with meniere's disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs61861121 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Meniere's Disease. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs61861121 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 rs61861121 come from?
GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2026, PMID:42302782. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
