Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 10,708 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.586 higher (95% confidence interval 0.55-0.62); p = 7 × 10⁻²⁰⁷.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 86% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q24.2 — a missense change in GCA.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Grancalcin levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Grancalcin levels.

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Grancalcin levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs17783344

What is rs17783344?

rs17783344 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GCA gene. Published research associates it with grancalcin levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs17783344 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 rs17783344 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2021, PMID:34648354. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
