What the study found

Who was studied 201,323 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 294,828 individuals, up to 78,317 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.873 higher (95% confidence interval 0.78-0.96); p = 1 × 10−76.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.42 — in an intron of TMEM150B.

Questions about rs117146677

What is rs117146677?

rs117146677 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TMEM150B gene. Published research associates it with age at natural menopause. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs117146677 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 rs117146677 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2021, PMID:34349265. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
