Who was studied 424,305 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.209 lower (95% confidence interval 0.19-0.23); p = 6 × 10−67.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 99% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17p11.2 — in an intron of TOM1L2.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of height (mean, inv-normal transformed) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/CPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with height (mean, inv-normal transformed).
C/CPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of height (mean, inv-normal transformed) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs147747231
What is rs147747231?
rs147747231 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TOM1L2 gene. Published research associates it with height (mean, inv-normal transformed). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs147747231 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Height. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs147747231 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 rs147747231 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.
