Procollagen C-endopeptidase enhancer 2 levels

PCOLCE2 · rs11716897

What the study found

Who was studied 10,708 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.395 higher (95% confidence interval 0.37-0.42); p = 4 × 10−192.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q23 — in an intron of PCOLCE2.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Procollagen C-endopeptidase enhancer 2 levels compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Procollagen C-endopeptidase enhancer 2 levels.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Procollagen C-endopeptidase enhancer 2 levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs11716897

What is rs11716897?

rs11716897 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PCOLCE2 gene. Published research associates it with procollagen c-endopeptidase enhancer 2 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11716897 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 rs11716897 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2021, PMID:34648354. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
