What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Central corneal thickness compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2010, PMID:20485516)
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Central corneal thickness. (GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2010, PMID:20485516)
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Central corneal thickness — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2010, PMID:20485516)

Questions about rs12447690

What is rs12447690?

rs12447690 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ZNF469 gene. Published research associates it with central corneal thickness. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12447690 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 rs12447690 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2010, PMID:20485516. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
