Volume of right cortico-amygdaloid transition area

MSRB3-AS1 · rs7980920

What the study found

Who was studied 35,474 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0409 higher (95% confidence interval 0.028-0.054); p = 4 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 45% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q14.3 — in an intron of MSRB3-AS1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Volume of right cortico-amygdaloid transition area. 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 Volume of right cortico-amygdaloid transition area. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Volume of right cortico-amygdaloid transition area. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7980920

What is rs7980920?

rs7980920 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MSRB3-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with volume of right cortico-amygdaloid transition area. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7980920 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 rs7980920 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:40097784. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
