What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Type 2 diabetes compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2008, PMID:18711366)
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Type 2 diabetes. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2008, PMID:18711366)
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Type 2 diabetes — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2008, PMID:18711366)

Questions about rs6769511

What is rs6769511?

rs6769511 is a single position in the genome, in or near the IGF2BP2 gene. Published research associates it with type 2 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6769511 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs6769511 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 rs6769511 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2008, PMID:18711366. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
