Self-reported risk-taking behaviour

ZNF362 · rs4653015

What the study found

Who was studied 113,882 European ancestry cases, 322,354 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.03 times the odds of Self-reported risk-taking behaviour (95% confidence interval 1.018-1.037); p = 4 × 10−9.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 26% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p35.1 — in an intron of A3GALT2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4653015

What is rs4653015?

rs4653015 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ZNF362 gene. Published research associates it with self-reported risk-taking behaviour. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4653015 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 rs4653015 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Commun Biol 2018, PMID:30271922. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
