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.

What the study found

Who was studied 28,238 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.108 lower (95% confidence interval 0.081-0.135); p = 3 × 10⁻¹⁴.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 15% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4p15.31 — between genes, 0.5 kb from LCORL.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Infant length. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Infant length. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Infant length. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1380294

What is rs1380294?

rs1380294 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LCORL gene. Published research associates it with infant length. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1380294 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 rs1380294 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2015, PMID:25281659. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
