What the study found

Who was studied 77,627 European ancestry cases, 933,894 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 0.95 times the odds of Gout (95% confidence interval 0.93-0.96); p = 1 × 10−19.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 32% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q23.2 — in an intron of LINC01229.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs11644836

What is rs11644836?

rs11644836 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC01229 gene. Published research associates it with gout. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11644836 linked to?

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

Does having rs11644836 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 rs11644836 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39406924. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
