LEPR · rs2767486

What the study found

Who was studied 11,095 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.143 lower (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.17); p = 6 × 10−34.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 84% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p31.3 — in an intron of LEPR.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to BMI at 6 months old. 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 BMI at 6 months old. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to BMI at 6 months old. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs2767486

What is rs2767486?

rs2767486 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LEPR gene. Published research associates it with bmi at 6 months old. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2767486 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 rs2767486 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature metabolism 2022, PMID:35315439. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
