What the study found

Who was studied 321,047 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 79,005 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0844 lower (95% confidence interval 0.065-0.104); p = 6 × 10−18.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q32 — a missense change in ADRB2.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for Beta-2-adrenoreceptor agonist, reduced response to; criteria provided, single submitter (1 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2022-11-01. ClinVar record 17744 NM_000024.6(ADRB2):c.491C>T (p.Thr164Ile)

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-12 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 Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of FEV1 — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with FEV1.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of FEV1 compared to the general population.

Questions about rs1800888

What is rs1800888?

rs1800888 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ADRB2 gene. Published research associates it with fev1. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1800888 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 rs1800888 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30804560. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
