rs117255962 RNF24
T allele associated with decreased risk of Pallidum iron levels (quantitative susceptibility mapping) (OR=0.36). [GWAS Catalog]
What is rs117255962?
rs117255962 is a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the RNF24 gene. Each person carries two copies, one from each parent, so a result is reported as a pair of letters such as TT. The table below describes what studies associate with each genotype; the association is statistical, across populations, and is not a diagnosis.
What does each rs117255962 genotype mean?
| Genotype | Association | What the evidence says | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| TT | typical / lower | T allele associated with decreased risk of Pallidum iron levels (quantitative susceptibility mapping) (OR=0.36). [GWAS Catalog] | 90% |
| GG | typical / lower | G allele associated with decreased risk of IDP SWI T2star left pallidum (OR=0.27). [GWAS Catalog] | 70% |
Is rs117255962 on 23andMe and AncestryDNA chips?
Chip coverage is not recorded for this variant. Orviva reports it when a raw-data file contains it directly or via a well-correlated proxy SNP, and says so when it does not.

Genetic associations describe risk across populations, not a diagnosis for any one person. Most variants shift risk modestly and act alongside lifestyle, environment and other genes. Consumer DNA chips do not read every position and can be wrong at any single one. For general education only; talk to a clinician or genetic counsellor before acting on anything here, and never change a prescribed medicine without your prescriber.
