Stands on its own.

research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can

What the study found
Who was studied 181,862 European ancestry elderly individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0596 lower (95% confidence interval 0.045-0.074); p = 1 × 10−15.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 31% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20q12 — between genes, 5.8 kb from HSPE1P1.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Appendicular lean mass. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Appendicular lean mass. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Appendicular lean mass. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
American journal of human genetics · 2019 · PMID 31761296
Questions about rs2208649
What is rs2208649?
rs2208649 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near HSPE1P1 gene. Published research associates it with appendicular lean mass. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs2208649 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 rs2208649 come from?
GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2019, PMID:31761296. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
