Red blood cell side fluorescence distribution width

ATAD2B · rs72796327

What the study found

Who was studied 30,565 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.146 SD units lower (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.17); p = 5 × 10−36.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p23.3 — in an intron of ATAD2B.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Red blood cell side fluorescence distribution width. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Red blood cell side fluorescence distribution width. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Red blood cell side fluorescence distribution width. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs72796327

What is rs72796327?

rs72796327 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ATAD2B gene. Published research associates it with red blood cell side fluorescence distribution width. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs72796327 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 rs72796327 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37596262. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
