What the study found

Who was studied 2 Alaskan native ancestry schizophrenia cases, 18 Asian ancestry schizophrenia cases, 20 African American schizophrenia cases, 1 Native Hawaiian ancestry schizophrenia cases, 86 European ancestry schizophrenia cases, 2 Alaskan native ancestry controls, 10 Asian ancestry controls, 17 African American controls, 1 Native Hawaiian ancestry controls, 106 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.6 higher; p = 4 × 10−8.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q11.2 — in an intron of LINC02105.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Verbal memory. 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 Verbal memory. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Verbal memory. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs67017972

What is rs67017972?

rs67017972 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NDUFS4 gene. Published research associates it with verbal memory. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs67017972 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 rs67017972 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Schizophr Res 2018, PMID:29907492. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
