What the study found

Who was studied 372,047 European ancestry individuals.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 37% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q31.33 — in an intron of GRM8.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Feeling hurt. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Feeling hurt. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Feeling hurt. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

What conditions is rs2237739 linked to?

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

Does having rs2237739 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 rs2237739 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2018, PMID:29500382. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
