Coffee consumption (cups per day)

LOC101927630 · rs17706320

What the study found

Who was studied 227,666 British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.05 cups per day lower; p = 5 × 10−16.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7p21.1 — in an intron of LINC02889.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs17706320

What is rs17706320?

rs17706320 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LOC101927630 gene. Published research associates it with coffee consumption (cups per day). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs17706320 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 rs17706320 come from?

GWAS Catalog, American journal of kidney diseases : the official journal of the National Kidney Foundation 2020, PMID:31837886. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
