rs800292

Chromosome : 1 , Position: 196673103
Most conditions are affected by anywhere from hundreds to millions of genetic variants (SNPs). A single SNP usually has a minor contribution to a person’s overall genetic risk for a certain condition. That is why you shouldn't consider or act on a SNP in isolation. Instead, we use SNPs to determine polygenic risk scores (PRSs), which are the basis of most health reports.

Summary

rs800292 is a SNP in the complement factor H CFH gene; it has been linked to blindness in age related macular degeneration. This SNP is also known as 184G>A, I62V, or Val62Ile.

A haplotype of rs1061170 rs3753394 rs800292 rs1329428 (TGTC) was found to confer a significantly increased likelihood of exudative AMD [ARMD in Caucasians, but not in Japanese [PMID 16710702]

[PMID 18316707] A study of Chinese AMD patients reports that carriers of both rs11200638 and rs800292 risk alleles pushes the odds ratio for AMD up to 23x. Overall, an “extremely high” population attributable risk (PAR) of 78% reported for these SNPs.

[PMID 19187823] rs800292 was associated with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) in a study of 130 Japanese patients.
