General risk tolerance (MTAG)

KMT2E · rs10266287

What the study found

Who was studied 975,353 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.007 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0046-0.0094); p = 2 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q22.3 — in an intron of KMT2E-AS1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to General risk tolerance (MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to General risk tolerance (MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to General risk tolerance (MTAG). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs10266287

What is rs10266287?

rs10266287 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KMT2E gene. Published research associates it with general risk tolerance (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10266287 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 rs10266287 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30643258. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
