Male puberty timing (age at voice breaking MTAG)

near RNU7-147P · rs1598656

What the study found

Who was studied 205,354 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0224 years higher (95% confidence interval 0.015-0.029); p = 4 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q33.1 — between genes, 180.7 kb from RNU7-147P.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Male puberty timing (age at voice breaking MTAG). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Male puberty timing (age at voice breaking MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Male puberty timing (age at voice breaking MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1598656

What is rs1598656?

rs1598656 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RNU7-147P gene. Published research associates it with male puberty timing (age at voice breaking mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1598656 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 rs1598656 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2020, PMID:32210231. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
