F-meat liking (derived food-liking factor)

near KRT8P21 · rs4233100

What the study found

Who was studied 158,509 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0764 lower (95% confidence interval 0.053-0.1); p = 2 × 10−10.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p31.1 — between genes, 13.6 kb from KRT8P21.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to F-meat liking (derived food-liking factor). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to F-meat liking (derived food-liking factor). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to F-meat liking (derived food-liking factor). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs4233100

What is rs4233100?

rs4233100 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KRT8P21 gene. Published research associates it with f-meat liking (derived food-liking factor). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4233100 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 rs4233100 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.
