Left–right brain asymmetry

MAPRE3 · rs62130503

What the study found

Who was studied 32,256 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 1 × 10−10.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 5% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p23.3 — in an intron of MAPRE3-AS1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Left–right brain asymmetry. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Left–right brain asymmetry. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Left–right brain asymmetry. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs62130503

What is rs62130503?

rs62130503 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MAPRE3 gene. Published research associates it with left–right brain asymmetry. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs62130503 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 rs62130503 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature human behaviour 2021, PMID:33723403. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
