A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Alcohol use disorder (total score) compared to the general population.
A/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Alcohol use disorder (total score).
T/TPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Alcohol use disorder (total score) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs4953148
What is rs4953148?
rs4953148 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC01833 gene. Published research associates it with alcohol use disorder (total score). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs4953148 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Alcohol Use Disorder. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs4953148 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 rs4953148 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Am J Psychiatry 2018, PMID:30336701. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
