What the study found

Who was studied 102,084 European ancestry cases, 771,257 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 1.04 higher (95% confidence interval 1.03-1.06); p = 3 × 10−9.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 84% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.2 — in an intron of PTK2B.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Migraine compared to the general population.
A/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Migraine.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Migraine — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs11782789

What is rs11782789?

rs11782789 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PTK2B gene. Published research associates it with migraine. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11782789 linked to?

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

Does having rs11782789 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 rs11782789 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2022, PMID:35115687. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
