Spontaneous coronary artery dissection

C1orf51 · rs12740679

What the study found

Who was studied up to 243 European ancestry cases, up to 23 East Asian ancestry cases, up to 4,816 European ancestry controls, up to 447 East Asian ancestry controls; replicated in up to 149 European ancestry cases, up to 14 East Asian ancestry cases, up to 2,935 European ancestry controls, up to 272 East Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.586 higher (95% confidence interval 0.42-0.75); p = 2 × 10−12.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q21.2 — between genes, 2.8 kb from CIART.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Spontaneous coronary artery dissection. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Spontaneous coronary artery dissection. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Spontaneous coronary artery dissection. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs12740679

What is rs12740679?

rs12740679 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C1orf51 gene. Published research associates it with spontaneous coronary artery dissection. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12740679 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 rs12740679 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2020, PMID:32887874. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
