Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What the study found
Who was studied up to 4,961 European individuals, up to 411 Old Order Amish (founder/genetic isolate) individuals; replicated in 20,722 European individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.06 lower (95% confidence interval 0.04-0.08); p = 1 × 10−8.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 58% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p11.21 — between genes, 0.9 kb from NKX6-3.
What each result means
A/A
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Corrected insulin response compared to the general population.
A/G
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Corrected insulin response.
G/G
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Corrected insulin response — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs12549902
What is rs12549902?
rs12549902 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ANK1 gene. Published research associates it with corrected insulin response. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs12549902 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 rs12549902 come from?
GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2014, PMID:24699409. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
