What the study found

Who was studied 1,311,438 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0131 lower (95% confidence interval 0.01-0.0162); p = 4 × 10−16.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 21% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q13.11 — between genes, 40.3 kb from SSX2IPP1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Educational attainment (MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Educational attainment (MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Educational attainment (MTAG). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1464015

What is rs1464015?

rs1464015 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near SSX2IPP1 gene. Published research associates it with educational attainment (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1464015 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Educational Attainment. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs1464015 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 rs1464015 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2018, PMID:30038396. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
