What the study found

Who was studied 214 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 120,940 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 451 European ancestry cases, 448,942 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 4.03 lower (95% confidence interval 4.02-4.04); p = 6 × 10−13.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q26 — in an intron of PRKN.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Exostosis of jaw (PheCode 526.8) compared to the general population.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Exostosis of jaw (PheCode 526.8).
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Exostosis of jaw (PheCode 526.8) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs182756278

What is rs182756278?

rs182756278 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PRKN gene. Published research associates it with exostosis of jaw (phecode 526.8). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs182756278 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Exostosis of Jaw. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs182756278 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 rs182756278 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
