What the study found

Who was studied 165,056 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.017 lower (95% confidence interval 0.011-0.023); p = 2 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 15% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q21.2 — between genes, 2.2 kb from LINC02464.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs10858543

What is rs10858543?

rs10858543 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02464 gene. Published research associates it with height. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs10858543 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Height. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs10858543 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 rs10858543 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
