Complement factor H-related protein 3 levels

KCNQ2 · rs78606172

What the study found

Who was studied 252 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 7.61 higher (95% confidence interval 5.45-9.76); p = 4 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20q13.33 — in an intron of KCNQ2.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Complement factor H-related protein 3 levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Complement factor H-related protein 3 levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Complement factor H-related protein 3 levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs78606172

What is rs78606172?

rs78606172 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KCNQ2 gene. Published research associates it with complement factor h-related protein 3 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs78606172 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 rs78606172 come from?

GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2021, PMID:34260948. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
