Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What the study found
Who was studied 690,110 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0113 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0079-0.0147); p = 8 × 10−11.
Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q24.3 — in an intron of BOP1.
What each result means
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Body size or adipose distribution (multivariate analysis). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Body size or adipose distribution (multivariate analysis). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Body size or adipose distribution (multivariate analysis). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs4557742
What is rs4557742?
rs4557742 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BOP1 gene. Published research associates it with body size or adipose distribution (multivariate analysis). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs4557742 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 rs4557742 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40796553. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
