Transmembrane glycoprotein NMB levels

near KLHL7-DT · rs7797870

What the study found

Who was studied 2,917 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.211 higher (95% confidence interval 0.16-0.26); p = 1 × 10−17.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 57% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7p15.3 — between genes, 29.1 kb from KLHL7-DT.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Transmembrane glycoprotein NMB levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Transmembrane glycoprotein NMB levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Transmembrane glycoprotein NMB levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7797870

What is rs7797870?

rs7797870 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KLHL7-DT gene. Published research associates it with transmembrane glycoprotein nmb levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7797870 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 rs7797870 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:34857772. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
