Who was studied 90,939 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0075 lower; p = 8 × 10−13.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 78% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.31 — between genes, 7.3 kb from SRSF3.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Vertical cup-disc ratio (multi-trait analysis). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/COne copy of the version the research linked to Vertical cup-disc ratio (multi-trait analysis). That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Vertical cup-disc ratio (multi-trait analysis). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
rs72852338 is a single position in the genome, in or near the STK38 gene. Published research associates it with vertical cup-disc ratio (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 rs72852338 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 rs72852338 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 rs72852338 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:31959993. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
