Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 1,028,980 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 62,047 African ancestry individuals, 21,843 African American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.356 higher (95% confidence interval 0.26-0.45); p = 2 × 10⁻¹².

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p13.3 — at a splice region of TRAF7.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for TRAF7-related disorder, Glioma susceptibility 1, Gastric cancer, Ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma, Hepatocellular carcinoma and 7 more; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 4 submitters), last evaluated 2019-12-31. ClinVar record 774920 NM_032271.3(TRAF7):c.792C>T (p.Tyr264=)

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-19 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 Diastolic blood pressure. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Diastolic blood pressure. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Diastolic blood pressure. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs187643207

What is rs187643207?

rs187643207 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TRAF7 gene. Published research associates it with diastolic blood pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs187643207 linked to?

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

Does having rs187643207 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 rs187643207 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:38689001. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
