Spread type: Butter/spreadable butter (UKB data field 1428_1)

near OR52J2P · rs2445249

What the study found

Who was studied 448,696 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0187 higher (95% confidence interval 0.014-0.023); p = 9 × 10−15.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 55% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p15.4 — between genes, 9.7 kb from OR52J2P.

What each result means

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Spread type: Butter/spreadable butter (UKB data field 1428_1). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Spread type: Butter/spreadable butter (UKB data field 1428_1). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Spread type: Butter/spreadable butter (UKB data field 1428_1). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2445249

What is rs2445249?

rs2445249 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near OR52J2P gene. Published research associates it with spread type: butter/spreadable butter (ukb data field 1428_1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2445249 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 rs2445249 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2020, PMID:32193382. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
