What the study found

Who was studied 20,714 Amish, White ancestry individuals, 447 Asian ancestry individuals, 11,246 Black individuals, 13,834 Central American ancestry, Cuban ancestry, Dominican ancestry, Mexican ancestry, Puerto Rican ancestry, South American ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.24 lower (95% confidence interval 0.18-0.3); p = 6 × 10−20.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p13.3 — in an intron of TSC2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9926128

What is rs9926128?

rs9926128 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TSC2 gene. Published research associates it with mean corpuscular hemoglobin. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs9926128 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 rs9926128 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 rs9926128 come from?

GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2021, PMID:33887194. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
