Caffeine consumption from coffee

CACNA2D2 · rs35198275

What the study found

Who was studied 373,522 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0208 higher (95% confidence interval 0.014-0.027); p = 8 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 87% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p21.31 — in an intron of CACNA2D2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs35198275

What is rs35198275?

rs35198275 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CACNA2D2 gene. Published research associates it with caffeine consumption from coffee. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs35198275 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 rs35198275 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Journal of the American Heart Association 2020, PMID:33287642. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
