C/CPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Glaucoma (multi-trait analysis) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2020, PMID:31959993)
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Glaucoma (multi-trait analysis). (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2020, PMID:31959993)
T/TPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Glaucoma (multi-trait analysis) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2020, PMID:31959993)
rs6914444 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GMDS gene. Published research associates it with glaucoma (multi-trait analysis). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs6914444 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Glaucoma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs6914444 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 rs6914444 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2020, PMID:31959993. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
