What the study found

Who was studied 3,301 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.47 higher (95% confidence interval 0.35-0.59); p = 7 × 10−15.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 4% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q22.1 — inside CTCF-DT.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Agouti-related protein levels (AGRP.2813.11.2). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Agouti-related protein levels (AGRP.2813.11.2). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Agouti-related protein levels (AGRP.2813.11.2). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs60697456

What is rs60697456?

rs60697456 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CTCF-DT gene. Published research associates it with agouti-related protein levels (agrp.2813.11.2). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs60697456 linked to?

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

Does having rs60697456 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 rs60697456 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2018, PMID:29875488. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
