Basal ganglia structure

near H4C5 · rs9393688

What the study found

Who was studied 34,794 British ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 4 × 10−13.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.2 — between genes, 1.9 kb from H4C5.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9393688

What is rs9393688?

rs9393688 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near H4C5 gene. Published research associates it with basal ganglia structure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9393688 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 rs9393688 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2024, PMID:39353893. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
