Albumin levels

near IGHG2 · rs7492292

What the study found

Who was studied 158,000 British ancestry women.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.11 g/L lower (95% confidence interval 0.083-0.137); p = 2 × 10−15.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 43% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q32.33 — between genes, 6.1 kb from IGHG2.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Albumin levels. 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 Albumin levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Albumin levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7492292

What is rs7492292?

rs7492292 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near IGHG2 gene. Published research associates it with albumin levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7492292 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 rs7492292 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science advances 2021, PMID:34321204. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
