DLG2 · rs145742114

What the study found

Who was studied 217 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 121,232 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 551 European ancestry cases, 449,100 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.79 lower (95% confidence interval 1.73-1.86); p = 4 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q14.1 — in an intron of DLG2.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Congenital anomalies of face and neck (PheCode 749) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Congenital anomalies of face and neck (PheCode 749).
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Congenital anomalies of face and neck (PheCode 749) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs145742114

What is rs145742114?

rs145742114 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DLG2 gene. Published research associates it with congenital anomalies of face and neck (phecode 749). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs145742114 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 rs145742114 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
