Who was studied 38,841 European ancestry cases, 451,248 European ancestry controls, 45,383 East Asian ancestry cases, 132,032 East Asian ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0548 lower (95% confidence interval 0.042-0.067); p = 6 × 10−18.
Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q23.3 — between genes, 6.3 kb from RPL35AP3.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
rs12662968 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RPL35AP3 gene. Published research associates it with type 2 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs12662968 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs12662968 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 rs12662968 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
