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 each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Resting heart rate — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27798624)

A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Resting heart rate. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27798624)

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Resting heart rate compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27798624)

Questions about rs4900069

What is rs4900069?

rs4900069 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C14orf159 gene. Published research associates it with resting heart rate. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4900069 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 rs4900069 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27798624. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
