Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 2 Alaskan native ancestry schizophrenia cases, 18 Asian ancestry schizophrenia cases, 20 African American schizophrenia cases, 1 Native Hawaiian ancestry schizophrenia cases, 86 European ancestry schizophrenia cases, 2 Alaskan native ancestry controls, 10 Asian ancestry controls, 17 African American controls, 1 Native Hawaiian ancestry controls, 106 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 3.4 lower; p = 5 × 10⁻⁸.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7p21.1 — in an intron of HDAC9.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Reasoning compared to the general population.

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Reasoning.

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Reasoning — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs76872642

What is rs76872642?

rs76872642 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HDAC9 gene. Published research associates it with reasoning. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs76872642 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 rs76872642 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Schizophr Res 2018, PMID:29907492. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
