What the study found

Who was studied 291,107 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0684 lower (95% confidence interval 0.052-0.084); p = 8 × 10−17.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 20% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q22.3 — between genes, 14.2 kb from PCCB.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs61789601

What is rs61789601?

rs61789601 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PCCB gene. Published research associates it with metabolic syndrome. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs61789601 linked to?

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

Does having rs61789601 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 rs61789601 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Metabolic syndrome and related disorders 2019, PMID:31589552. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
