Hedonic well-being

STAU1 · rs34841991

What the study found

Who was studied 221,575 British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.022 higher (95% confidence interval 0.014-0.03); p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 24% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20q13.13 — in an intron of STAU1.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Hedonic well-being compared to the general population.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Hedonic well-being.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Hedonic well-being — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs34841991

What is rs34841991?

rs34841991 is a single position in the genome, in or near the STAU1 gene. Published research associates it with hedonic well-being. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs34841991 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 rs34841991 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Sci Rep 2018, PMID:30279531. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
