Who was studied 388,538 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0135 higher (95% confidence interval 0.009-0.018); p = 6 × 10−9.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 80% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p36.23 — in an intron of RERE.
What each result means
A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Subjective well-being (MTAG) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Subjective well-being (MTAG).
G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Subjective well-being (MTAG) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs4908768
What is rs4908768?
rs4908768 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RERE gene. Published research associates it with subjective well-being (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs4908768 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Depression (Self-Reported Symptoms). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs4908768 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 rs4908768 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2018, PMID:29292387. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
