SOX2_OT · rs6785807

What the study found

Who was studied 49,269 European ancestry individuals; replicated in up to 22,383 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.057 lower (95% confidence interval 0.039-0.075); p = 7 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 15% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q26.33 — in an intron of LINC01206.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs6785807

What is rs6785807?

rs6785807 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SOX2_OT gene. Published research associates it with free thyroxine concentration. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs6785807 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 rs6785807 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2018, PMID:30367059. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
