Condition: Vitamin D Deficiency and the GC Gene

rs78862524 Condition: Vitamin D Deficiency and the GC Gene Vitamin D Deficiency and the GC Gene Condition rs78862524 rs78862524 ADAMTS3

What the study found

Who was studied 2,619 whole genome sequenced European ancestry individuals, up to 38,213 European ancestry individuals, 1,442 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.16 nmol/L lower (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.2); p = 5 × 10−20.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 5% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q13.3 — in an intron of ADAMTS3.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Vitamin D levels compared to the general population.
A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Vitamin D levels.
C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Vitamin D levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs78862524

What is rs78862524?

rs78862524 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ADAMTS3 gene. Published research associates it with vitamin d levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs78862524 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Vitamin D Deficiency and the GC Gene. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs78862524 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 rs78862524 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2017, PMID:28757204. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
