near LINC02295 · rs148051302

What the study found

Who was studied 235 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 121,074 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 1,379 European ancestry cases, 447,337 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 2.86 lower (95% confidence interval 2.83-2.89); p = 4 × 10−11.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q32.2 — between genes, 32.5 kb from LINC02295.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Leukoplakia of oral mucosa (PheCode 528.6) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Leukoplakia of oral mucosa (PheCode 528.6).
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Leukoplakia of oral mucosa (PheCode 528.6) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs148051302

What is rs148051302?

rs148051302 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02295 gene. Published research associates it with leukoplakia of oral mucosa (phecode 528.6). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs148051302 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 rs148051302 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.
