What the study found

Who was studied 14,607 European ancestry current smokers, 65,935 European ancestry former and never smokers, 5,545 African ancestry current smokers, 21,571 African ancestry former and never smokers, 2,465 Asian ancestry current smokers, 10,973 Asian ancestry former and never smokers, 1,068 Hispanic current smokers, 7,737 Hispanic former and never smokers; replicated in 48,198 European ancestry current smokers, 251,872 European ancestry former and never smokers, 1,971 African ancestry current smokers, 5,814 African ancestry former and never smokers, 29,485 Asian ancestry current smokers, 119,447 Asian ancestry former and never smokers, 3,737 Hispanic current smokers, 14,199 Hispanic former and never smokers.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 16.9 higher (95% confidence interval -); p = 2 × 10−8.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 99% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p36.32 — in an intron of AJAP1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure x smoking status (current vs non-current) interaction (1df test). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure x smoking status (current vs non-current) interaction (1df test). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Systolic blood pressure x smoking status (current vs non-current) interaction (1df test). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs12135881

What is rs12135881?

rs12135881 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AJAP1 gene. Published research associates it with systolic blood pressure x smoking status (current vs non-current) interaction (1df test). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12135881 linked to?

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

Does having rs12135881 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 rs12135881 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2018, PMID:29455858. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
