Who was studied 172,851 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0359 higher (95% confidence interval 0.025-0.047); p = 3 × 10−10.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q31.21 — in an intron of ANAPC10.
What each result means
C/CPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration compared to the general population.
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration.
T/TPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration — no copies of the reported risk allele.
rs76505278 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ANAPC10 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs76505278 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs76505278 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 rs76505278 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Cell 2016, PMID:27863252. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
