Who was studied 27,236 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.125 lower (95% confidence interval 0.081-0.169); p = 3 × 10−8.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 86% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p36.22 — in an intron of KIF1B.
What each result means
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Mean platelet volume. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Mean platelet volume. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Mean platelet volume. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
rs6693965 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KIF1B gene. Published research associates it with mean platelet volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs6693965 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs6693965 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 rs6693965 come from?
GWAS Catalog, BMC genomics 2021, PMID:34107879. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
