Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What the study found
Who was studied 67,485 African American or Afro-Caribbean individuals, 36,872 Hispanic or Latin American individuals, 4,010 East Asian ancestry individuals, 221,657 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0408 lower (95% confidence interval 0.034-0.048); p = 4 × 10−32.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 61% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q24.2 — in a non-coding transcript of SLC7A5.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to Basophil (fraction, mean, inv-norm transformed). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Basophil (fraction, mean, inv-norm transformed). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to Basophil (fraction, mean, inv-norm transformed). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs8055108
What is rs8055108?
rs8055108 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC7A5 gene. Published research associates it with basophil (fraction, mean, inv-norm transformed). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs8055108 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 rs8055108 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
