Suicide attempt

OTX2-AS1 · rs850261

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 35,786 European ancestry cases, 779,392 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.05 times the odds of Suicide attempt (95% confidence interval 1.03-1.06); p = 1 × 10⁻⁸.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 43% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q22.3 — in an intron of OTX2-AS1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Suicide attempt. 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 Suicide attempt. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Suicide attempt. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs850261

What is rs850261?

rs850261 is a single position in the genome, in or near the OTX2-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with suicide attempt. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs850261 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 rs850261 come from?

GWAS Catalog, The American journal of psychiatry 2023, PMID:37777856. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
