Condition: Height

What each result means

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

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

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

Questions about rs11970475

What is rs11970475?

rs11970475 is a single position in the genome, in or near the UBD gene. Published research associates it with height. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11970475 linked to?

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

Does having rs11970475 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 rs11970475 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2014, PMID:25429064. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
