What the study found

Who was studied 22,267 Amish, White ancestry individuals, 447 Asian ancestry individuals, 12,285 Black individuals, 13,831 Central American ancestry, Cuban ancestry, Dominican ancestry, Mexican ancestry, Puerto Rican ancestry, South American ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 12.2 lower (95% confidence interval 8.6-15.82); p = 3 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p15.4 — inside TRIM5.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Mean corpuscular volume. 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 Mean corpuscular volume. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Mean corpuscular volume. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs916216189

What is rs916216189?

rs916216189 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TRIM5 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular volume. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs916216189 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Cell Counts. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs916216189 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 rs916216189 come from?

GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2021, PMID:33887194. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
