Smoking status (ever vs never smokers)

TMEM182 · rs1430065

What the study found

Who was studied 518,633 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0143 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0099-0.0188); p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q12.1 — between genes, 220.7 kb from TMEM182.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Smoking status (ever vs never smokers). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Smoking status (ever vs never smokers). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Smoking status (ever vs never smokers). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1430065

What is rs1430065?

rs1430065 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TMEM182 gene. Published research associates it with smoking status (ever vs never smokers). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1430065 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 rs1430065 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30643258. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
