Peak expiratory flow

LINC00649 · rs12627254

What the study found

Who was studied 321,047 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 24,218 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0331 higher (95% confidence interval 0.026-0.041); p = 2 × 10−18.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 13% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 21, band 21q22.11 — in an intron of LINC00649.

What each result means

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Peak expiratory flow. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Peak expiratory flow. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Peak expiratory flow. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs12627254

What is rs12627254?

rs12627254 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC00649 gene. Published research associates it with peak expiratory flow. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12627254 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 rs12627254 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30804560. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
