Leukocyte telomere length

ZNF512B · rs817330

What the study found

Who was studied 327,790 British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.013 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0091-0.0169); p = 1 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 41% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20q13.33 — a synonymous change in ZNF512B.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for ZNF512B-related disorder, Malignant lymphoma, large B-cell, diffuse; no assertion criteria provided (0 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2019-10-21. ClinVar record 3060013 NM_020713.3(ZNF512B):c.183G>A (p.Pro61=)

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-12 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Leukocyte telomere length. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Leukocyte telomere length. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Leukocyte telomere length. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs817330

What is rs817330?

rs817330 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ZNF512B gene. Published research associates it with leukocyte telomere length. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs817330 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 rs817330 come from?

GWAS Catalog, GeroScience 2024, PMID:38837026. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
