Lung function (FEV1)

TOP2B · rs60962207

What the study found

Who was studied 475,645 European ancestry individuals, 8,590 African ancestry individuals, 85,279 East Asian ancestry individuals, 4,270 South Asian ancestry individuals, 14,668 Hispanic or Latin American individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 6.36 z score higher; p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 18% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p24.2 — in an intron of TOP2B.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Lung function (FEV1). 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 Lung function (FEV1). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Lung function (FEV1). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs60962207

What is rs60962207?

rs60962207 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TOP2B gene. Published research associates it with lung function (fev1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs60962207 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 rs60962207 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:36914875. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
