Problematic alcohol use

H2AZ1-DT · rs148382129

What the study found

Who was studied 435,563 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 9.95 z score lower; p = 3 × 10−23.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q23 — inside H2AZ1-DT.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs148382129

What is rs148382129?

rs148382129 is a single position in the genome, in or near the H2AZ1-DT gene. Published research associates it with problematic alcohol use. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs148382129 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 rs148382129 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature neuroscience 2020, PMID:32451486. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
