near KCNG2 · rs11081564

What the study found

Who was studied 283,749 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0347 lower (95% confidence interval 0.025-0.045); p = 2 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q23 — between genes, 6.3 kb from KCNG2.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Age when finished full-time education (standard GWA). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Age when finished full-time education (standard GWA). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Age when finished full-time education (standard GWA). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs11081564

What is rs11081564?

rs11081564 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KCNG2 gene. Published research associates it with age when finished full-time education (standard gwa). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11081564 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 rs11081564 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature human behaviour 2023, PMID:37106081. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
