Peak expiratory flow

PIK3C2B · rs1008833

What the study found

Who was studied 321,047 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 24,218 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0324 lower (95% confidence interval 0.025-0.039); p = 2 × 10−19.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 85% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q32.1 — in an intron of PIK3C2B.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Peak expiratory flow. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Peak expiratory flow. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Peak expiratory flow. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1008833

What is rs1008833?

rs1008833 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PIK3C2B gene. Published research associates it with peak expiratory flow. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1008833 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 rs1008833 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30804560. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
