Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 523,783 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 59,206 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0188 higher (95% confidence interval 0.012-0.025); p = 4 × 10⁻⁸.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 8% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p23.1 — between genes, 45.9 kb from LINC02950.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Neuroticism compared to the general population.

G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Neuroticism.

T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Neuroticism — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs117374667

What is rs117374667?

rs117374667 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near PRAG1 gene. Published research associates it with neuroticism. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs117374667 linked to?

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

Does having rs117374667 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 rs117374667 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2019, PMID:30643256. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
