What the study found

Who was studied 384,317 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0409 higher (95% confidence interval 0.035-0.047); p = 3 × 10−43.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 22% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q14.1 — in an intron of LINC02966.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs62158206

What is rs62158206?

rs62158206 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC02966 gene. Published research associates it with sleep duration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs62158206 linked to?

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

Does having rs62158206 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 rs62158206 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.
