Where this position leads

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Mean platelet volume — no copies of the reported risk allele.

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Mean platelet volume.

G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Mean platelet volume compared to the general population.

Questions about rs9900280

What is rs9900280?

rs9900280 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TAOK1 gene. Published research associates it with mean platelet 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 rs9900280 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 rs9900280 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 rs9900280 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hum Genet 2013, PMID:24026423. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
