This is a synonymous variant in the ASPM gene — it does not change the protein's amino acid sequence.

Ischemic stroke is associated with the ABO locus: The EuroCLOT study

AssociationN=63,100Williams FM et al.(2013)· Annals of Neurology

The EuroCLOT study identified genetic variants associated with coagulation factors in healthy volunteers and examined their association with ischemic stroke using a three-stage design (2,100 twins in discovery, 4,200 cases in stage 2, and 8,900 cases/55,000 controls in stage 3). The lead ABO locus SNP rs505922 showed significant association with ischemic stroke (OR=1.07, 95% CI=1.03-1.11, p=0.0006), with association specifically in cardioembolic and large-vessel stroke but not small-vessel disease. Two additional ABO SNPs (rs643434 and rs651007) also showed significant association.

About ASPM

This gene is the human ortholog of the Drosophila melanogaster 'abnormal spindle' gene (asp), which is essential for normal mitotic spindle function in embryonic neuroblasts. Studies in mouse also suggest a role of this gene in mitotic spindle regulation, with a preferential role in regulating neurogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with microcephaly primary type 5. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]
