Household income (MTAG)

LINC01104 · rs6722241

What the study found

Who was studied 505,541 British and unknown ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0202 higher (95% confidence interval 0.016-0.025); p = 5 × 10−19.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q11.2 — inside AFF3.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Household income (MTAG). 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 Household income (MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Household income (MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs6722241

What is rs6722241?

rs6722241 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC01104 gene. Published research associates it with household income (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs6722241 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 rs6722241 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2019, PMID:31844048. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
