Thyroid stimulating hormone levels

near BDKRB2 · rs1109302

What the study found

Who was studied 482,873 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.014 lower (95% confidence interval 0.01-0.018); p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 49% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q32.2 — between genes, 11.7 kb from BDKRB2.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Thyroid stimulating hormone levels. 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 Thyroid stimulating hormone levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Thyroid stimulating hormone levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1109302

What is rs1109302?

rs1109302 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near BDKRB2 gene. Published research associates it with thyroid stimulating hormone levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1109302 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 rs1109302 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:41238958. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
