What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of QT interval compared to the general population.
C/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with QT interval.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of QT interval — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs1396515

What is rs1396515?

rs1396515 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KCNJ2 gene. Published research associates it with qt interval. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1396515 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to QT Interval and Drug-Induced Long QT. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs1396515 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 rs1396515 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:24952745. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
