What the study found

Who was studied 1,122,049 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0218 lower (95% confidence interval 0.016-0.027); p = 8 × 10−15.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q24.3 — a missense change in CPNE7.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs455527

What is rs455527?

rs455527 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CPNE7 gene. Published research associates it with body mass index. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs455527 linked to?

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

Does having rs455527 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 rs455527 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:36581621. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
