HMGA1 · rs75034466

Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 210,267 European ancestry individuals, 19,802 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0625 higher (95% confidence interval 0.048-0.077); p = 2 × 10⁻¹⁷.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 5% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.31 — between genes, 3.6 kb from HMGA1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Offspring birth weight. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Offspring birth weight. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Offspring birth weight. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs75034466

What is rs75034466?

rs75034466 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HMGA1 gene. Published research associates it with offspring birth weight. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs75034466 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Birth Weight. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs75034466 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 rs75034466 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:31043758. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
