What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Intelligence (MTAG) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Mol Psychiatry 2018, PMID:29326435)

C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Intelligence (MTAG). (GWAS Catalog, Mol Psychiatry 2018, PMID:29326435)

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Intelligence (MTAG) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Mol Psychiatry 2018, PMID:29326435)

Questions about rs4261436

What is rs4261436?

rs4261436 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AKAP6 gene. Published research associates it with intelligence (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4261436 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 rs4261436 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Mol Psychiatry 2018, PMID:29326435. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
