CADM2 · rs55753638

What the study found

Who was studied 434,835 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.022 lower (95% confidence interval 0.016-0.028); p = 3 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 88% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p12.1 — in an intron of CADM2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs55753638

What is rs55753638?

rs55753638 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CADM2 gene. Published research associates it with morningness. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs55753638 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 rs55753638 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30804565. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
