Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 14,446 European ancestry cases, 763,168 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.426 higher (95% confidence interval 0.29-0.56); p = 1 × 10⁻⁹.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q35 — in an intron of LINC00607.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Appendectomy. 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 Appendectomy. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Appendectomy. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs114998640

What is rs114998640?

rs114998640 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC00607 gene. Published research associates it with appendectomy. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs114998640 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 rs114998640 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell genomics 2022, PMID:36777996. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
