Smoking behaviour (cigarettes smoked per day)

RSRC1 · rs28813180

What the study found

Who was studied up to 377,334 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0155 lower (95% confidence interval 0.011-0.02); p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 50% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q25.32 — in an intron of RSRC1.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Smoking behaviour (cigarettes smoked per day) compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Smoking behaviour (cigarettes smoked per day).
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Smoking behaviour (cigarettes smoked per day) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs28813180

What is rs28813180?

rs28813180 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RSRC1 gene. Published research associates it with smoking behaviour (cigarettes smoked per day). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs28813180 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 rs28813180 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30643251. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
