Central nucleus volume

MR1 · rs6667291

What the study found

Who was studied 31,690 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.547 lower (95% confidence interval 0.39-0.7); p = 3 × 10−12.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q25.3 — in an intron of MR1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs6667291

What is rs6667291?

rs6667291 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MR1 gene. Published research associates it with central nucleus volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs6667291 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 rs6667291 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Biological psychiatry 2024, PMID:37391117. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
