Body shape phenotype PC4

near LINC02995 · rs1363558

What the study found

Who was studied 460,198 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.00447 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0031-0.0059); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 55% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q35.2 — between genes, 100.8 kb from LINC02995.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Body shape phenotype PC4. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Body shape phenotype PC4. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Body shape phenotype PC4. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1363558

What is rs1363558?

rs1363558 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02995 gene. Published research associates it with body shape phenotype pc4. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1363558 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 rs1363558 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.
