Body shape phenotype PC3

near NOG · rs227732

Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 460,198 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0194 lower (95% confidence interval 0.016-0.023); p = 1 × 10⁻²².

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 70% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q22 — between genes, 96.9 kb from NOG.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Body shape phenotype PC3 compared to the general population.

C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Body shape phenotype PC3.

T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Body shape phenotype PC3 — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs227732

What is rs227732?

rs227732 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near NOG gene. Published research associates it with body shape phenotype pc3. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs227732 linked to?

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

Does having rs227732 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 rs227732 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science advances 2024, PMID:38640244. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
