Chicken liking

near RMC1 · rs303762

What the study found

Who was studied 158,559 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.029 higher (95% confidence interval 0.022-0.036); p = 1 × 10−14.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q11.2 — between genes, 1.1 kb from RMC1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Chicken liking. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Chicken liking. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Chicken liking. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs303762

What is rs303762?

rs303762 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RMC1 gene. Published research associates it with chicken liking. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs303762 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 rs303762 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:35585065. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
