Stands on its own. 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.

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10⁻¹¹, with 19 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10⁻⁵⁰. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10⁻²⁰. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10⁻⁸). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 460,198 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0267 lower (95% confidence interval 0.017-0.036); p = 3 × 10⁻⁸.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 75% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.2 — between genes, 0.4 kb from COASY.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Body shape phenotype PC1. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Body shape phenotype PC1. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Body shape phenotype PC1. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs12945575

What is rs12945575?

rs12945575 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near COASY gene. Published research associates it with body shape phenotype pc1. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12945575 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 rs12945575 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science advances 2024, PMID:38640244. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
