Sex hormone-binding globulin levels

TUSC8 · rs9533843

What the study found

Who was studied 370,125 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0059 higher (95% confidence interval 0.004-0.0077); p = 1 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 47% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q14.11 — in an intron of TUSC8.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Sex hormone-binding globulin levels. 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 Sex hormone-binding globulin levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Sex hormone-binding globulin levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs9533843

What is rs9533843?

rs9533843 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TUSC8 gene. Published research associates it with sex hormone-binding globulin levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9533843 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 rs9533843 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature medicine 2020, PMID:32042192. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
