What the study found

Who was studied 20,890 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 16,178 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 64.7 ml higher; p = 5 × 10−17.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 6% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q24 — in an intron of INTS12.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs11727189

What is rs11727189?

rs11727189 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GSTCD gene. Published research associates it with pulmonary function. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11727189 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Pulmonary Function (Lung Capacity). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs11727189 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 rs11727189 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2009, PMID:20010835. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
