A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Pulse pressure x alcohol consumption (light vs heavy) interaction (2df test) compared to the general population.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Pulse pressure x alcohol consumption (light vs heavy) interaction (2df test).
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Pulse pressure x alcohol consumption (light vs heavy) interaction (2df test) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
rs62481856 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PIK3CG gene. Published research associates it with pulse pressure x alcohol consumption (light vs heavy) interaction (2df test). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs62481856 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Alcohol Consumption. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs62481856 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 rs62481856 come from?
GWAS Catalog, PLoS One 2018, PMID:29912962. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
