SCUBE3 · rs9348970

Where this position leads

Condition: Asthma

What the study found

Who was studied 64,538 European ancestry cases, 239,321 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.05 times the odds of Asthma (95% confidence interval 1.03328709619862-1.06532859183176); p = 7 × 10⁻¹⁰.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 19% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.31 — between genes, 28.1 kb from SCUBE3.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Asthma. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Asthma. That is a smaller link than two copies.

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

Questions about rs9348970

What is rs9348970?

rs9348970 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SCUBE3 gene. Published research associates it with asthma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs9348970 linked to?

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

Does having rs9348970 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 rs9348970 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2020, PMID:32296059. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
