Who was studied 365,998 European ancestry individuals, 63,490 African ancestry individuals, 22,802 Hispanic individuals, 4,792 Asian ancestry individuals, 2,695 Native American ancestry individuals; replicated in 299,024 European ancestry individuals, 17,277 individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.134 mmHg higher (95% confidence interval 0.09-0.178); p = 2 × 10−9.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 25% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q21 — between genes, 0.2 kb from SETD6.
What each result means
C/CPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Pulse pressure compared to the general population.
C/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Pulse pressure.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Pulse pressure — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs1646010
What is rs1646010?
rs1646010 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SETD6 gene. Published research associates it with pulse pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs1646010 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Pressure. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs1646010 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 rs1646010 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:30578418. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
