Who was studied 518,633 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0127 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0083-0.0171); p = 2 × 10−8.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 63% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4p15.2 — between genes, 96.2 kb from IGBP1P5.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Smoking status (ever vs never smokers) compared to the general population.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Smoking status (ever vs never smokers).
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Smoking status (ever vs never smokers) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
rs10461104 is a single position in the genome, in or near the STIM2 gene. Published research associates it with smoking status (ever vs never smokers). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs10461104 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Adventurousness. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs10461104 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 rs10461104 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2019, PMID:30643258. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
