What the study found

Who was studied 394,642 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0121 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0084-0.0157); p = 2 × 10−11.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 56% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.3 — between genes, 179 kb from RPL6P18.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Platelet count (UKB data field 30080). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Platelet count (UKB data field 30080). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Platelet count (UKB data field 30080). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs9393356

What is rs9393356?

rs9393356 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RPL6P18 gene. Published research associates it with platelet count (ukb data field 30080). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs9393356 linked to?

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

Does having rs9393356 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 rs9393356 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39789286. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
