What the study found

Who was studied 51,551 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 64,463 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 22,274 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 35,406 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 2,272 East Asian ancestry cases, 4,333 East Asian ancestry controls, 154,194 European ancestry cases, 278,454 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0414 higher (95% confidence interval 0.03-0.053); p = 1 × 10−13.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 62% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q31.3 — between genes, 21.5 kb from TMEM154.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes (PheCode 250.2). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes (PheCode 250.2). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Type 2 diabetes (PheCode 250.2). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4696136

What is rs4696136?

rs4696136 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near TMEM154 gene. Published research associates it with type 2 diabetes (phecode 250.2). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs4696136 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs4696136 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 rs4696136 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
