Sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 14 levels (SIGLEC14.8248.222.3)

SIGLEC5 · rs74861892

What the study found

Who was studied 3,301 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 1.27 lower (95% confidence interval -0.96--1.58); p = 4 × 10−15.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.41 — in the 3′ untranslated region of SIGLEC5.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 14 levels (SIGLEC14.8248.222.3). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 14 levels (SIGLEC14.8248.222.3). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 14 levels (SIGLEC14.8248.222.3). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs74861892

What is rs74861892?

rs74861892 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SIGLEC5 gene. Published research associates it with sialic acid-binding ig-like lectin 14 levels (siglec14.8248.222.3). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs74861892 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 rs74861892 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2018, PMID:29875488. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
