Standard

Height (baseline)

TGFB2-OT1 · rs17500758

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−18, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 405,540 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0257 lower (95% confidence interval 0.02-0.031); p = 1 × 10−18.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 95% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q41 — in the 3′ untranslated region of TGFB2-OT1.

What ClinVar records

Classification Likely benign for Loeys-Dietz syndrome 4; criteria provided, single submitter (1 of 4 stars, 1 submitter), last evaluated 2017-04-27. ClinVar record 295518 NM_003238.6(TGFB2):c.*1502T>C

Change history MyGeneLog™ keeps a copy of every weekly release from 2026-10-19 and compares them. This position's classification has not changed since.

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-11-09 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

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