Aortic root size

TMEM16A · rs7127129

What the study found

Who was studied 30,201 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 14,002 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.015 cm lower (95% confidence interval 0.0091-0.0209); p = 2 × 10−9.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 41% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q13.3 — in an intron of ANO1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7127129

What is rs7127129?

rs7127129 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TMEM16A gene. Published research associates it with aortic root size. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7127129 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 rs7127129 come from?

GWAS Catalog, J Clin Invest 2017, PMID:28394258. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
