Putamen iron levels (quantitative susceptibility mapping)

near ZNF280D · rs72744924

What the study found

Who was studied 39,533 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0741 higher (95% confidence interval 0.052-0.097); p = 2 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q21.3 — between genes, 46.3 kb from ZNF280D.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Putamen iron levels (quantitative susceptibility mapping). 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 Putamen iron levels (quantitative susceptibility mapping). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Putamen iron levels (quantitative susceptibility mapping). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs72744924

What is rs72744924?

rs72744924 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ZNF280D gene. Published research associates it with putamen iron levels (quantitative susceptibility mapping). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs72744924 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 rs72744924 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Neurobiology of disease 2024, PMID:38789058. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
