Who was studied 542,827 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0219 SD unit higher (95% confidence interval 0.018-0.026); p = 5 × 10−32.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 58% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q21.33 — between genes, 202.9 kb from RNU6-54P.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Platelet count. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Platelet count. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TNo copy of the version the research linked to Platelet count. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
rs670179 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RNU6-54P gene. Published research associates it with platelet count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs670179 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 rs670179 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 rs670179 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888493. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
