Mean corpuscular hemoglobin

PARP9 · rs7629285

What the study found

Who was studied 630,125 African American or Afro-Caribbean, African ancestry, European ancestry, East Asian ancestry, Hispanic or Latin American and South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 19% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q21.1 — in an intron of PARP9.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7629285

What is rs7629285?

rs7629285 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PARP9 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular hemoglobin. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7629285 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 rs7629285 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888493. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
