What the study found

Who was studied 113,769 British ancestry cases, 208,811 British ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0069 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0045-0.0093); p = 3 × 10−8.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 64% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q14.3 — in an intron of GRM5.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Depression (broad). 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 Depression (broad). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Depression (broad). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs6483414

What is rs6483414?

rs6483414 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GRM5 gene. Published research associates it with depression (broad). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6483414 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Depression (Self-Reported Symptoms). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs6483414 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 rs6483414 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2018, PMID:29662059. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
