What each result means
C/C
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Alcohol consumption (transferrin glycosylation) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2011, PMID:21665994)
C/G
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Alcohol consumption (transferrin glycosylation). (GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2011, PMID:21665994)
G/G
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Alcohol consumption (transferrin glycosylation) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2011, PMID:21665994)

Questions about rs2749097
What is rs2749097?
rs2749097 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PGM1 gene. Published research associates it with alcohol consumption (transferrin glycosylation). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs2749097 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 rs2749097 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2011, PMID:21665994. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
