BAG1 · rs706115

What the study found

Who was studied 7,644 African ancestry individuals, 1,503 Chinese ancestry individuals, 7,407 Indian, Pakistani ancestry individuals, 458,862 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.00275 higher (95% confidence interval 0.002-0.0035); p = 5 × 10−12.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 84% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9p13.3 — in the 3′ untranslated region of BAG1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs706115

What is rs706115?

rs706115 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BAG1 gene. Published research associates it with random glucose levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs706115 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 rs706115 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:37679419. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
