Mean reticulocyte volume

CCND3 · rs6939464

What the study found

Who was studied 408,112 British individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0355 higher (95% confidence interval 0.028-0.043); p = 3 × 10−20.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 13% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.1 — in an intron of CCND3.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Mean reticulocyte volume compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Mean reticulocyte volume.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Mean reticulocyte volume — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs6939464

What is rs6939464?

rs6939464 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCND3 gene. Published research associates it with mean reticulocyte volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs6939464 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 rs6939464 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
