Blood protein levels

near ITIH2 · rs73621225

What the study found

Who was studied 3,200 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.18 lower (95% confidence interval 1.09-1.27); p = 1 × 10−142.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 93% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10p14 — between genes, 0.4 kb from ITIH2.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Blood protein levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Blood protein levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Blood protein levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs73621225

What is rs73621225?

rs73621225 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ITIH2 gene. Published research associates it with blood protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs73621225 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 rs73621225 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2018, PMID:30072576. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
