Who was studied 1,311,438 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0085 lower (95% confidence interval 0.006-0.011); p = 7 × 10−11.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 49% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.12 — in an intron of LIN37.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Educational attainment (MTAG) compared to the general population.
A/CPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Educational attainment (MTAG).
C/CPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Educational attainment (MTAG) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
rs173003 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LIN37 gene. Published research associates it with educational attainment (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs173003 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Educational Attainment. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs173003 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 rs173003 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:30038396. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
