rs121918116, also known as c.1317G>A, p.Trp439Ter or W439X, is a rare mutation in the EPOR erythropoietin receptor gene on chromosome 19.

In a large Finnish family with autosomal dominant erythrocytosis (an increased number of circulating red blood cells), researchers found the rs121918116(G) mutation; the phenotype was mild in all individuals, and one individual (Eero Mantyranta) won 3 Olympic gold medals in cross-country skiing, presumably due in part to his body's ability to carry ~50% more oxygen than average.[PMID 8506290OA-icon.png]
