Cerebrospinal fluid t-tau:AB1-42 ratio

C15orf2 · rs8027714

What the study found

Who was studied 3,146 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 5 × 10−9.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 20% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q11.2 — in an intron of PWRN1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal fluid t-tau:AB1-42 ratio. 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 Cerebrospinal fluid t-tau:AB1-42 ratio. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal fluid t-tau:AB1-42 ratio. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs8027714

What is rs8027714?

rs8027714 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C15orf2 gene. Published research associates it with cerebrospinal fluid t-tau:ab1-42 ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs8027714 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 rs8027714 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Alzheimers Res Ther 2018, PMID:30153862. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
