Where this position leads

Solid lines are connections this site curates. Dashed lines mean the two ends share a research paper — worth knowing, and not a claim that one explains the other.

What the study found

Who was studied 12,171 European ancestry cases, 56,862 European ancestry controls, 6,952 East Asian ancestry cases, 11,865 East Asian ancestry controls, 5,561 South Asian ancestry cases, 14,458 South Asian ancestry controls, 1,804 Mexican ancestry cases, 779 Mexican ancestry controls; replicated in 21,491 European ancestry cases, 55,647 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.10 times the odds of Type 2 diabetes (95% confidence interval 1.07-1.14); p = 4 × 10⁻⁹.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p32.3 — in an intron of FAF1-AS1.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs17106184

What is rs17106184?

rs17106184 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FAF1 gene. Published research associates it with type 2 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs17106184 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

What do people read about alongside rs17106184?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include blood sugar and insulin (3 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs17106184 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 rs17106184 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:24509480. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
