near LINC00676 · rs12428305

What the study found

Who was studied 10,115 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 3,948 European ancestry individuals, 9,674 Chinese ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is C; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 5 × 10−13.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 26% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q34 — between genes, 6.4 kb from LINC00676.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Facial morphology (multitrait analysis). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Facial morphology (multitrait analysis). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Facial morphology (multitrait analysis). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs12428305

What is rs12428305?

rs12428305 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC00676 gene. Published research associates it with facial morphology (multitrait analysis). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12428305 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 rs12428305 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:36539420. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
