Who was studied 639,696 African American or Afro-Caribbean, African ancestry, European ancestry, East Asian ancestry, Hispanic or Latin American and South Asian ancestry individuals.
The effect
The reported allele is G; the catalogue records no effect size
; p = 6 × 10−119.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 21% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q21.22 — in an intron of SCD5.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to Monocyte count. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Monocyte count. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to Monocyte count. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
rs6824723 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SCD5 gene. Published research associates it with monocyte 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 rs6824723 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Monocyte Count, Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs6824723 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 rs6824723 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.
