What the study found

Who was studied 757,601 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 249,262 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.119 lower (95% confidence interval 0.084-0.155); p = 5 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 40% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q22.2 — in the 3′ untranslated region of MYO1E.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs3191402

What is rs3191402?

rs3191402 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MYO1E gene. Published research associates it with pulse pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs3191402 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Pressure. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs3191402 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 rs3191402 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:30224653. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
